San Sebastiano al Palatino, Baroque church on Palatine Hill, Rome, Italy.
San Sebastiano al Palatino stands on a rectangular terrace measuring 110 by 150 meters, featuring an unadorned exterior and simple interior design.
The structure replaced a temple from the first century CE, with the current building resulting from a 1624 reconstruction by the Barberini family.
The tenth-century apse contains preserved frescoes depicting the Virgin Mary accompanied by angels and female saints in the lower register.
Visitors can access the church through Via Bonaventura from the Forum, with its location offering views of the Colosseum and Temple of Venus.
The site holds historical significance as the location of Saint Sebastian's first unsuccessful martyrdom attempt with arrows during Diocletian's reign.
