San Giuseppe dei Teatini
Just off Quattro Canti, this large Baroque church pairs a colored dome with a richly decorated interior. An extended visitor route reaches spaces below and above the nave.
Why go
The church gives the architectural counterpoint to the open-air geometry of Quattro Canti nearby. Start with the dome and marble-lined interior; if the visitor route is available, the crypt, underground church and terraces broaden the visit beyond a quick look from the nave.
What to look for
The blue-and-yellow majolica dome
A Baroque interior with marble columns and decoration
The crypt, underground church and terraces on the visitor route
Useful to know
Pair the church with Quattro Canti, then decide whether to take the longer visitor route below and above the nave.
Check tourist access before a Sunday or holiday visit; the city guide lists no sightseeing visits then.
