What people say
Thomas Hill

"One of the major churches of the order of the Dominicans. The name derives from the fact that the first Christian church was built directly over the ruins or foundations of a temple dedicated to the Egyptian goddess Isis, which had been mistakenly attributed to the roman goddess Minerva. The church was built in the 14th and 15th century, and is home to some incredible relics, baroque style artworks, sculptures and much more."
