Sant'Angelo in Pescheria, 8th-century church at Portico of Octavia, Rome, Italy.

The church contains three naves with a central section featuring semicircular arched windows and a wooden ceiling supported by stone columns.

Pope Stephen II transferred the relics of Saint Symphorosa and her seven sons to this church in 752, establishing its religious importance.

The interior displays frescoes by Benozzo Gozzoli from 1450, including a notable Madonna with Child and Angels in the second chapel.

The church maintains regular services under the direction of the Order of Clerics Regular Minor, who operate from the adjacent convent.

The floor features a polychrome marble coat of arms of the University of Fishmongers, depicting fish, deer, and geese symbols.
