Chiesa di Ognissanti, Catholic church on Via Appia Nuova in Rome, Italy

The church exhibits a pronounced three-nave structure with a Latin cross layout, featuring granite pillars and round arches throughout its interior design.

Construction of the church began in 1914 under architect Tullio Passarelli, faced interruption during World War I, and reached completion in 1920.

In 1965, Pope Paul VI celebrated the first Mass in Italian at this church, marking a shift from Latin to vernacular language in Catholic services.

The church maintains regular opening hours for visitors and worshippers, with the main entrance located directly on Via Appia Nuova near Piazza Re di Roma.

The interior houses a marble Pietà donated by Pope Pius XI and displays stained glass windows depicting saints John Bosco, Pius X, and Luigi Orione.
