Fatti rapidi: Step inside and you'll find soaring neo-Gothic vaults where jewel-toned stained glass floods the nave with warm, kaleidoscopic light. Many visitors are struck by the powerful pipe organ and the twin towers capped in copper that has weathered to a vivid green, giving the exterior a dramatic, unforgettable silhouette.
Punti salienti: Step inside and afternoon light pours through high stained-glass panels, painting the nave in ruby, emerald, and sapphire while the warm scent of beeswax and incense hangs thick above wooden pews. A little-known local habit sees worshippers tucking tiny handwritten prayers and old rosary beads into the stonework around the altar, and on festival mornings volunteers hand out warm almond pastries to anyone leaving the service.
Consigli da insider
- Dress modestly, cover shoulders and knees when services are in progress.
- Arrive 30 minutes before noon for the best stained-glass light from the eastern windows.
- Keep phones on silent and speak quietly, services and private prayer occur during the day.
- Photograph the twin spires from the square opposite the facade, and move inside for close-ups of the altar and rose window.
