    Founded in 310, rebuilt in the 12th, and then after a fire in 1527. Important for its antiquities and works of art. In the pyre was saved miraculously a large crucifix, which still is the object of great veneration. The façade, a masterpiece of Carlo Fontana.

    I was in this place, but not between, is a church which adorns one of the busiest street of Rome, at the moment you're walking to browsing the shops and surprise, this Church of centuries ago appears.

    Just a ship but it's beautiful, frescoes in the top of the walls, altar, different details in each arc. Get closer. By the way the piety with colors

  • Peaceful, beautiful and absolutely a charming church to spend a moment or two without the teeming tourist crowds. I do not know why this place hasn't been recommended in tourist guide books, but it is definitely worth a visit if you are around this area.
  • Right off the street on the way to Trevi Foundation while coming from Piazza Venezia. Beautiful church with lovely ceiling. a good spot to sit and contemplate.
  • Extraordinarily beautiful church with amazing works of art.
  • Walking down the road and almost walked passed. Went inside and found a little gem. It's good to look past the obvious sights and look for gems like this.
  • Beautifully decorated church. Well worth a peek inside. Remember to look up, the ceiling is amazing.

Where to stay in Rome

©
For easy foot access to most of the city's main historical sites, consider staying in Rome's old town center. The area is conveniently placed for public transport, only a walk away from the city's main railway station. Accommodations here span all hotels sectors, from cheap hostels to luxury brand names. To avoid the steep prices and overcrowding of the town center, explore the hotels in the inner suburbs of Rome. They offer comfortable rooms and excellent food at a fraction of the price charged by the centrally located hotel chains. Another affordable option is the area around Vatican, which boasts a good selection of family-owned B&Bs.
