The monumental complex of Santi Quattro Coronati in Rome
by Lia Barelli
The complex of Ss. Quattro Coronati in Rome is situated on the Caelian Hill between the Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano and the valley of the Colosseum. Its diverse archaeological background together with the artistic and architectonic quality of its various components and the spirituality that permeates it to this day make it one of the most fascinating monumental sites in the city. This guide provides a brief account of the entire history of the complex from its obscure Paleochristian origins up until today, and examines its most significant attributes, devoting particular attention to the recent discoveries that have further underlined its importance.
