San Salvatore alle Coppelle, church building in Rome, Italy
San Salvatore alle Coppelle is a Romanesque church at Piazza delle Coppelle in Rome with a floor plan of central nave and two side aisles. Columns support rounded arches and vaults that structure the space at regular intervals.
The church received consecration from Pope Celestine III on November 26, 1195, marking an important moment in its early development. The Romanesque style that was widespread at that time shaped the building's architecture.
The church's name refers to the pottery vessels that merchants once used in this district. Visitors today see how the simple interior design reflects this past connection to local commerce.
The church is located in the Sant'Eustachio district and maintains regular opening hours. Visitors should know that services following the Byzantine rite for Greek Catholics still take place here today, which helps with planning a visit.
A narrow slot carved into the church wall from medieval times allowed innkeepers to drop messages about sick travelers inside. This enabled the church brotherhood to quickly offer assistance to those in need.
