Santa Teresa del Bambin Gesù in Trastevere

Santa Teresa del Bambin Gesù in Trastevere is a church building with classical architectural features and a Latin inscription displayed above its main entrance. The structure displays traditional design elements typical of early 20th-century religious construction.

Construction of this church began in 1909 and was completed in 1925, when its dedication ceremony took place on May 18. The date coincided with the canonization of Teresa of Lisieux.

The building transitioned from a Discalced Carmelite convent to the headquarters of the Carmelite Order's General Curia in Rome during 1942.

The building now functions as an administrative office space and is not open to the public as a place of worship. You can view and photograph the exterior facade and its inscription from the street.

The Latin inscription above the entrance reads 'Anno sacro MCMXXV die XVIII maii templum hoc Deo dicatum in honorem Teresiae ab Infante Jesu in album SS relatae.'
