San Domenico (St. Dominic Church)
At the death of Saint Dominic, in 1221, in this monastery of the order he founded, the works at the church began, which lasted several centuries.The marble tomb that consecrates its remains is a sufficiently visited reason, carved in tiny details by the greatest artists of the day, including Michelangelo and Nicola Pisano.The art treasures of the church do not end here.The remarkable wooden enlargement of the master of the Inlaure Brothers' Damiano da Bergamo in the choir was appreciated by the contemporaries of the Renaissance as the eighth wonder of the world.Each first and second Saturday of the month, at 10.30 and 15.30, free guided trips are offered to chapels, choir, Inquisition rooms, St. Domenic Chilia and other places that are not usually open to the public.
