San Paolo alla Regola, Baroque church in Regola district, Rome, Italy

The church features a Greek cross layout with four corner chapels, a central dome, and a facade designed by Giuseppe Sardi in 1728.

The church stands on the site of Saint Paul's first Roman residence, where he lived under house arrest before his execution by Emperor Nero.

The interior contains notable artworks, including frescoes by Luigi Garzi depicting Saint Paul's life and a 14th-century Madonna delle Grazie painting.

The church opens daily for religious services and visits, allowing access to the underground archaeological remains of ancient Roman structures.

Excavations between 1978 and 1982 revealed four building levels, including structures from the Roman period when the area served as riverside warehouses.
