Sant'Agata dei Goti Church, Religious monument in Via Mazzarino, Rome, Italy

The church contains a Romanesque bell tower from the 12th century and a facade reconstructed by Francesco Ferrari in 1729.

The structure was erected around 460 by Ricimer for the Gothic community and later converted to Catholic worship under Pope Gregory in 591.

The interior displays an apse fresco by Paolo Gismondi depicting Saint Agatha's martyrdom, with columns decorated in Cosmatesque mosaics.

The church operates under the administration of the Stigmatine congregation and functions as their general headquarters since 1926.

A relief at the entrance portrays Saint Agatha holding her severed breasts, representing the torture she endured during her martyrdom.
