San Rocco sopra Principe, Catholic church in San Teodoro, Genoa, Italy.

The church presents a single nave adorned with stucco decorations crafted by artist Marcello Sparzo and frescoes depicting scenes from Saint Roch's life.

Built in the 16th century over a 14th-century chapel dedicated to Saint Margaret, the church received its current name in 1555 under the Apostolini order.

The interior holds numerous paintings from demolished Genoese churches, including works by Giovanni Andrea Ansaldo, Luciano Borzone, and Domenico Fiasella.

The church maintains regular services under the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Genoa and welcomes visitors to explore its architectural features.

A marble statue of Saint Roch, created by sculptor Honoré Pellé in 1700, stands as a central artistic element within the church.
