点评:The church was built in the 17th century in the center of Navona square and overlooking the 4 rivers fountain of Bernini. It is adjacent to Pamphilj palace, home of the family of pope Innocent X who gave the orders to built it. It is built in the same place where Saint Agnes was allegedly martyred in the stadium of Domitian.
The facade has 2 bell towers while the interior takes the shape of greek cross with a dome over the center, 2 main chapels and a main altar, unusually dedicated to John the Baptist not Saint Agnes.
The church despite the facade is relatively small, but the decorations, frescos and dome are very impressive. Also the skull of the saint is enclosed in a silver case, under her silver statue.
Naturally all people visiting Rome come to the Navona square, so i suggest just taking a few minutes to visit the church.
翻译:这座教堂建于17世纪,位于纳沃纳广场的中心,俯瞰着贝尔尼尼设计的“四河喷泉”。它毗邻庞菲利宫,即下令建造此教堂的教皇英诺森十世的家族宅邸。教堂建在据称是圣艾格尼丝在图密善竞技场殉道之地的位置。
教堂正面有两座钟楼,内部呈希腊十字形结构,中央有一个圆顶,还有两个主礼拜堂及一座主祭坛。这座教堂异常地以施洗者约翰而非圣阿格尼斯为主角。虽然从外观上看教堂规模不算大,但其装饰、壁画以及圆顶都极为出色。此外,圣阿格尼斯的头骨被置于银制盒中,安放在她的银质雕像下方。当然,所有到访罗马的人都会去纳沃纳广场,所以我建议只需花几分钟时间来参观一下这座教堂即可。
