Santi Marcellino e Pietro ad Duas Lauros, Renaissance Revival church in Prenestino-Labicano, Rome, Italy.
The church features a three-arched portico with Corinthian columns and displays a central nave divided by arcades with travertine limestone columns.
Emperor Constantine I built a funerary basilica dedicated to Saints Marcellinus and Peter over existing catacombs around 320, near the necropolis of Imperial Horse Guards.
The church preserves an altarpiece depicting the Martyrdom of Saints Marcellinus and Peter, commemorating the early Christian martyrs venerated at this location.
The current neo-Romanesque building, constructed in 1922, stands closer to Via Casilina, replacing a previous Baroque structure that was built within ancient ruins.
The name 'Ad Duas Lauros' refers to two laurel trees that marked this location along the ancient Via Labicana, where Helena, Constantine's mother, owned land.
