Church of St. Ignatius of Loyola
Chiesa di Sant'Ignazio di Loyola
17th-century Roman Catholic church with trompe l'oeil ceilings & frescoes depicting St. Ignatius. The Jesuits did not have enough money for a dome, so there is a fake dome painted on the ceiling. Sts. Aloysius Gonzaga, John Berchmans, and Robert Bellarmine are all buried here. From next to St. Aloysius' altar in the church, there is a stairway leading to his rooms, as well as the rooms of St. John Berchmans.
