Sant'Ignazio, Baroque church in Gorizia, Italy

The church features a single nave with three chapels on each side, adorned with intricate baroque altars and polychrome marble decorations.

Construction of Sant'Ignazio began in 1654 and continued until 1767, when the first Archbishop of Gorizia, Carlo Michele d'Attems, consecrated the building.

The main altar, created by Venetian sculptor Lazzarini in 1716, displays statues of four evangelists and the Virgin Mary with Child.

The church maintains regular visiting hours and provides access for visitors with mobility requirements through dedicated entrance facilities.

Two bell towers topped with copper onion domes frame the facade, which contains three niches holding statues of Saint Ignatius, John the Baptist, and Joseph.
