The Basilica di San Domenico is dedicated to the founder of the Dominican Order, but is also closely linked to the veneration of St. Catherine of Siena. The name "basilica" does not refer to the type of building, but to the ecclesiastical status of a minor basilica, which was awarded to it in 1927.
