What a beautiful place and unexpected surprise! Entrance fee is FREE and the staff is very kind and knowledgeable. The collection of religious art is impressive and the way the history exhibits are organized is just great. If you are a Catholic, this is a must see!

For a small museum there’s a lot to see, for those interested in Catholicism and its religious concepts. Good place to visit.
