Rome Catholic wedding: 10th century Church close to ColiseumThis is one of our favourite Churches for Catholic weddings in Rome! If you stand with your back to the Coliseum facing eastward toward the Forum you will see this lovely Church and its tall Romanesque bell tower. You are in the heart of ancient Rome, surrounded by history, shrines and temples and just few steps from Coliseum. |
The Church was built in the second half of the 10th century, partly on the foundations of the ancient temple of Venus and Rome, while the fine bell tower was erected in the 12th century. In the 14th century it became an abbey of Olivetan Benedectines. You will be overwhelmed by the rich interiors: precious ceilings, gilded altar, 12th century mosaics, and many paintings, the oldest one is a 7th century work! What a gorgeous backdrop for your Catholic wedding in Rome. Its beauty and the surrounding area make it one of the most sought Churches for a Rome Catholic wedding. |
