Cappella Dondola
The altarpiece is an important marble relief sculpture of the Mystical Marriage of St Catherine of Alexandria (note that the saint is carrying her famous Catherine Wheel), firmly attributed to Raffaello da Montelupo about 1539. In other words it was in the old church, and is arguably the best thing in this one.
