Madonna del Rosario, Catholic church in Monte Mario district, Rome, Italy

The Madonna del Rosario features an elliptical interior plan with a central dome, high altar, and two side chapels on Via Trionfale.

Giovanni Vittorio de Rossi established the church in 1628 within his vineyard property at the summit of Monte Mario hill.

The church contains the Maria Advocata, a Byzantine icon from the 7th-8th century that records indicate has been in Rome since 1219.

Dominican nuns maintain the church and its adjacent convent, which includes a double flight of stairs leading to the entrance.

The convent preserves the left hand of Saint Catherine of Siena and displays a self-portrait by Dominican nun Anna Vittoria Dolara.
