San Filippo Neri is a Baroque-style, Roman Catholic church located in the city of Ragusa, in southern Sicily, Italy.
History
A church was erected here in 1636 and dedicated to the newly canonized founder of the Oratorian order, and patronized by the Schininà family. It was able to remain standing after the earthquake of 1693, and was enlarged between 1738 and 1740, and again remodeled in 1761. The interiors were refurbished in the 19th century. The lateral chapel has a canvas depicting Mary at the Temple from the 17th-century in an altar with scagliola.
