The church was given the form of a threenave basilica with a shallow transept and a semi-circularchancel enclosed by a sacristy and a utility room. The crossing of the naves was emphasized with a powerful dome, making this impressive space the dominant feature of the interior.On the day of its dedication the church was equipped with all the necessary furnishings such as altars, pews and the organ. However, practically nothing of the original decoration of the church has been preserved, due to the fire which broke out in May 1962.The renovation works included new marble altars with mosaic balustrade at the chancel. The walls were decorated with a polychrome with the life of Christ and Mary and depictions of saints.
