As an active place of worship, regular mass services and religious ceremonies are held throughout the week. Visitors should dress respectfully and remain quiet during services.
The pipe organ was built by Francesco Antonio Dacci in 1796 and maintains its original functionality through periodic restorations. This instrument demonstrates how craftsmanship can endure over centuries.
