beautiful - This place is so awesome I don't know where to begin. Its a super old baroque church built in like 1753 - and its set in this tightly packed square with all these beautiful houses. To enter the church you go up some steps and into the main hall which is huge - supposedly they can fit 750 people for a concert! Anyway the nice thing is that its really simple, no religious artifacts anywhere, just simple but imposing with these massive pillars and huge window at one end.

Anyway they have concerts here which are usually classical, the acoustics are pretty awesome and the massive window behind the orchestra makes for a pretty emotive view.

Downstairs in the vaults they have a restuarant and bar - I just got wine and nibbles in the interval - watch out for the parma ham £6.50 for a couple of slices! I didn't get a chance to check out the dinner menu but I guess you come here for the music anyway. 09-07-08
