Sant'Apollinare alle Terme Neroniane-Alessandrine, Minor basilica in Ponte, Rome, Italy.

The Renaissance-style basilica features a two-story facade with Ionic columns on the lower level and Corinthian columns on the upper section.

Pope Hadrian I established the church around 780 using materials from ancient Roman buildings, with eastern Basilian monks serving as the first priests.

The church contains numerous side chapels with altars dedicated to different saints and displays Stefano Pozzi's fresco The Glory of St Apollinaris.

The basilica, located at 42 Via dei Pianellari in Rome, serves as the station church for the Thursday of the fifth week in Lent.

The future Pope Pius X received his episcopal consecration within the walls of Sant'Apollinare in 1884.
