The church's awe-inspiring architecture, featuring a massive dome, intricately designed columns, and a striking facade, leaves a lasting impression on all who visit. Inside, the spacious and beautifully adorned interior creates a sense of tranquility and reverence. One notable event that solidified the church's fame was the miraculous survival during World War II when a bomb plummeted through the dome during a Mass but failed to explode, sparing the lives of hundreds of worshippers.
