Ragusa, view to Chiesa delle Santissime Anime del Purgatorio

A church was first consecrated in 1658, erected under the patronage of the Mazza family. The 1693 Sicily earthquake that nearly levelled Ragusa, left this church mainly untouched, and in 1694, it took over some of the functions of the nearby church of San Giovanni.
