The Chiesa del Purgatorio is a Sicilian Baroque church built in 1740 and located on Piazza della Repubblica in Ragusa, southern Sicily. Dedicated to those praying for the souls in purgatory, the church exemplifies the ornate architectural vocabulary of Baroque Sicily, a style that flourished in the region following the devastating earthquake of 1693 and the subsequent reconstruction of towns like Ragusa.
