The lone operating church left in Konya. Built in the 1910’s by the Italian railroad workers and currently cared for by two happy Italian nuns, the church mainly serves the spiritual needs of tour groups and a handful of Christian expatriates.

Mass most Sundays between 10:00am and 12:30pm. Between May and September, there are services most days due to pilgrim groups visiting nearly every day.

Between the two nuns, they can communicate in Italian, French, German, English, and Turkish, but to varying degrees. If you don’t have a chance to call, just show up and ring the bell; one of the nuns is usually there to open the gate.

Due to the locals’ paranoia about the nuns being missionaries, they only allow Turks to visit from Wednesdays and Fridays 2:30pm-3:30pm when services aren’t being held.
