I actually know the reason why there are 2 towers :) They follow the Cappadoccian style which is one based on the preachings of Cappadoccian priests, the ones who actually created Catholic dogma. The 2 towers + central space mean the 3 parts of the Catholic faith: Father, son, and the Holy Spirit.

That's a beautiful church, both outside and inside. You've captured it wonderfully.
