Santa Maria del Pianto, Baroque church in Rione Regola, Rome, Italy.
Santa Maria del Pianto features a Greek-cross interior layout supported by pilasters, with entrances from Piazza delle Cinque Scole and Via Santa Maria del Pianto.
In 1546, a reported miracle occurred when an image of the Madonna shed tears at the scene of a crime, leading to the construction of this church.
The high altar displays the venerated 15th-century fresco Madonna del Pianto, accompanied by two paintings by Agostino Ciampelli in the choir section.
The church maintains two separate entrance points, with the main access through Via Santa Maria del Pianto, while the southern entrance faces Piazza delle Cinque Scole.
The church building, designed by architect Nicolò Sebregondi in 1612, maintains its original unfinished facade with only labeled lintels at the entrance doors.
