Sant'Agata in Trastevere, Catholic church in Trastevere district, Rome, Italy

Sant'Agata in Trastevere features a single nave with three chapels on each side, decorated with white Carrara and Bardiglio marble floor slabs.

The church originated from a house owned by Pope Gregory II's family, which was transformed into a religious building during his papacy from 715 to 731.

The interior displays substantial artworks, including the Martyrdom of Saint Agatha altarpiece by Biagio Puccini and ceiling frescoes by Girolamo Troppa.

The church stands at Largo San Giovanni de Matha 91, adjacent to the Basilica of San Crisogono in the Trastevere neighborhood.

A 16th-century Flemish bell named Agostino rings from the church's elegant bell gable, which crowns the late Baroque facade.
