Santa Maria Addolorata a piazza Buenos Aires, Romanesque Revival church near Piazza Buenos Aires, Rome, Italy.
Santa Maria Addolorata is a Romanesque Revival church near Piazza Buenos Aires in Rome. The building features a central nave with two lateral aisles supported by Ionic columns and topped by an open timber trussed ceiling.
Construction began in 1910 to commemorate the centenary of Argentine independence and finished in 1930. The building was erected as a landmark of the connection between Rome and the Argentine community.
The interior features a prominent mosaic of Our Lady of Sorrows in the apse created by artist Giambattista Conti. This artwork shapes the visual character of the space and reflects the devotion experienced by visitors.
Access is straightforward and the church sits in a well-served neighborhood with good infrastructure nearby. Spanish-language Mass services occur on the first Sunday of each month, with special celebrations on September 15 and February 15.
The windows are made of alabaster rather than glass, following an ancient architectural principle. This choice merges old building traditions with modern construction methods and creates diffused, soft light inside.
