Museum of the Holy Souls in Purgatory in Italy

Found this interesting about the Museum of Holy Souls in Purgatory (Known as the “Little Purgatory Museum” (Piccolo Museo Del Purgatorio):

http://www.atlasobscura.com/places/museum-holy-souls-purgatory

  • Hours
    Mon-Fri 7:30-11 am, 4-7pm
  • Address:
    Lungotevere Prati 12, Rome, 00193, Italy
  • Free, donations accepted
    Aside from the Purgatory Museum, the Church itself is something to see. Not as grand as many other Roman Churches, it is uniquely Gothic. There aren’t too many Gothic churches in Rome. Baroque, yes; Romanesque, yes; but Gothic, not too many. Perhaps it should be called “neo-Gothic,” as the Church dates from the late 19th century.
