Santa Maria della Quercia, Rome, Catholic church near Palazzo Farnese in Regola district, Rome, Italy
The church features a Greek cross layout with a central cupola and contains paintings by Sebastiano Conca, Pietro Barbieri, and Filippo Evangelista.
The site originally housed San Niccolò de Curte church before Pope Julius II allowed its renaming to Santa Maria della Quercia in 1507.
The guild of Butchers received ownership of the church from Pope Clement VII in 1532 and maintains control of the property today.
