Church of St Thomas of Villanova

Collegiata di San Tommaso

"Tell me: What’s this place all about? This parish church is named for St. Thomas of Villanova. It's notable because it was designed by the one and only Gian Lorenzo Bernini and inside there's a painting by Pietro da Cortona. Entry is free. What’s it like being there? A great spot for reflection and to appreciate the genius that is Bernini. Who comes here? Art lovers, history lovers, and worshippers. Did it meet expectations? It's definitely worth a visit. So then what, or who, do you think it’s best for? If you have limited time, this Catholic Church is worth a quick peek. It's doable as the town Castel Gandolfo itself is rather small." - Arlene Gibbs
