San Lorenzo in Miranda, Baroque church in Roman Forum, Italy
San Lorenzo in Miranda stands within the Temple of Antoninus and Faustina, featuring ten original Roman columns and a brick facade on two levels.
The Senate dedicated the temple to Emperor Antoninus Pius and his wife Faustina in 141 AD, before its transformation into a church during medieval times.
The College of Chemists and Herbalists received the church from Pope Martin V in 1429, establishing it as a center for pharmaceutical studies.
The church interior contains a single nave with three chapels on each side, displaying paintings by Pietro da Cortona and Domenichino.
The Museum of Pharmaceutical Art within the church complex exhibits a collection of ancient pharmacy tools and traditional medicinal vessels.
