Santa Maria del Buon Consiglio

Santa Maria del Buon Consiglio, Catholic church in Tuscolano district, Rome, Italy

Santa Maria del Buon Consiglio is a neo-Romanesque church on Via Tuscolana, its brick facade fitted between the parish school and offices. A terracotta bas-relief of the Madonna sits in a lunette above the central doorway; three windows above are crowned by a pitched roof with decorative projections. Two low side doors flank the center, and the interior was expanded in 1954–55.

The church was built in 1916 to designs by Costantino Schneider, funded by a legacy of Pope Pius X, who had urged development of this sector of Rome before his death in August 1914. Archbishop Vittorio Ranuzzi de' Bianchi inaugurated it on 9 April 1916. Pope Benedict XV erected the parish on 26 July 1919, and Paolo Stefani expanded the interior in 1954–55.

The name means "Good Counsel" and refers to the protective role of the Virgin Mary in the community's spiritual life. Today it serves as a gathering place for parish worship and local neighborhood events.

The church stands on Via Tuscolana in the Tuscolano district, on the stretch near Porta Furba. It is served by the public transport lines running along the Via Tuscolana; the Porta Furba stop is the closest. The entrance sits between the parish school and offices, so the brick facade is easy to miss from the street.

In November 2020, Pope Francis elevated the church to cardinal's titular status, a rare honor for a relatively modern parish building. This designation places it among a select group of churches given special recognition within the Catholic Church.
