A good mix between old and actual history. This church had several new buildings. A small church became a huge complex church. It is very interesting realise different building styles.

Very nice and picturesque place in front of the stunning church Santo Stefano. Under the colonnades many pubs and nice, happy people. Visit the 7 churches complex and relax in the square with an Aperol Spritz.
