San Caio, Catholic titular church in Rome, Italy
San Caio was a Catholic church in Rome featuring a two-tiered columned facade and a bell tower. Its interior followed a Latin cross layout and contained paintings by notable artists depicting religious scenes.
The church was built in 1631 on the site of Pope Caius's former residence. It remained standing until 1878 when demolition occurred to make way for a government ministry building.
The church held religious artworks that depicted sacred moments and saints for the local community to venerate. These visual representations served as focal points for prayer and devotion within the space.
The site was located along Via XX Settembre near Porta Pia in the Monti district. Since the building was demolished over a century ago, today's visitors can only experience the historical location itself.
The church functioned as a Lenten station where papal processions took place during specific weeks of fasting. This special liturgical role made it an important stop in Rome's religious calendar.
