San Bernardino in Panisperna, Baroque church in Monti district, Rome, Italy

The San Bernardino in Panisperna stands on Via Panisperna with an elliptical shape and a dome adorned with frescoes by Bernardino Gagliardi.

Pope Clement VIII ordered the construction of this religious building in the late 1590s upon the former monastery of Sainte Veneranda ruins.

The church contains a painting by Giovanni Baglione near the sacristy door depicting Saints Francis, Clare, and Agatha in detailed composition.

Since 2003, this Catholic church serves as the primary religious center for the Chinese community residing in Rome.

The dome frescoes present multiple Franciscan saints gathered in a celestial setting, forming a representation of Saint Bernardin's glorification.
