San Giovanni Crisostomo

San Giovanni Crisostomo, Modern parish church in Monte Sacro Alto district, Rome, Italy

San Giovanni Crisostomo is a parish church on Via Emilio De Marchi in Rome's Monte Sacro Alto district, built 1968–1969 to designs by Ennio Canino and Viviana Rizzi. A large concrete canopy on a single pillar shelters the entrance, topped by a cross, with Pope Paul VI's majolica coat of arms above the door. Inside, exposed concrete walls and coloured windows showing the biblical creation story lead to a presbytery depiction of the Creation of Man.

The parish was created on 15 January 1964 by Cardinal Vicar Clemente Micara with the decree Quo aptius. The church was built in 1968–1969 to designs by Ennio Canino and Viviana Rizzi and consecrated on 16 February 1969. On 26 April 1969 Paul VI made it a cardinal title church.

The church is named after an important early Church Father, linking ancient Christian traditions to the modern Roman community. Visitors can see how this naming choice reflects the spiritual identity of the parish that gathers here.

The church is located on Via Emilio De Marchi and holds regular services for the community throughout the week. Visitors should check ahead about opening times, as these can vary depending on church activities and celebrations.

The building officially holds the status of a cardinal title church, meaning a cardinal serves as its spiritual patron. This connects the local community to higher ecclesiastical rank and gives the parish a special link to the global Catholic hierarchy.
