Sant'Andrea delle Fratte, Minor basilica in Colonna district, Rome, Italy

The church features a square bell tower and dome designed by Francesco Borromini, with a late Renaissance facade completed in 1826.

The structure replaced a previous church from 1192 called infra hortes, and construction of the current building started in 1604 under Gaspare Guerra's plans.

The basilica contains two marble angels created by Bernini, which were originally intended for placement on the Ponte Sant'Angelo bridge.

The basilica holds daily masses at 8:00, 10:00, 12:00, and 18:00 from September through June, with additional services on Sundays.

On January 20, 1842, the church witnessed the apparition of the Virgin Mary to Alphonse Ratisbonne, leading to his conversion to Catholicism.
