"Glorious Baroque church with Rubens's touch."

Can't really tell it's a church from its luxurious facade, which is believed that Rubens who used to live in the area, has designed. The glorious building is indeed a Baroque church, the St. Carolus Borromeus Church, and was built by the Jesuits in the 16^th century. Richly appointed decorations continuing in the interior, with lavish marble and artwork displays. A painting in the altar's centerpiece is the main focus attraction and is interchangeable, providing the ability to alter the painting.
