San Giovanni della Ficozza

San Giovanni della Ficozza, Baroque church in Rome, Italy.

San Giovanni della Ficozza is a baroque church building in Rome with curved walls and ornamental details throughout its exterior facade. The structure displays typical baroque stonework featuring decorative elements and embellished architectural features characteristic of the style.

San Giovanni della Ficozza is first documented at the end of the 12th century in an archive record of San Silvestro in Capite. In 1584 Gregory XIII had the Collegio dei Maroniti built beside it, and the Maronites officiated there until the early 19th century. The complex passed to civil uses under Napoleon; in 1846 Pius IX reconsecrated the church and gave the adjoining college to the Polish-Slovenian seminary. After 1870 it returned to civil use and was deconsecrated.

The name comes from Cecco Ficoccia (Ceccus de Ficocia), who paid towards the church's construction. From 1584 Maronite clergy officiated here, giving it the name chiesa dei Maroniti, until the early 19th century. Deconsecrated after 1870, the former nave now houses public premises, so no worship takes place.

The former church is deconsecrated and now houses public premises, so there are no services to plan around. It stands on via dei Maroniti in the Trevi district, a short walk from the Trevi Fountain. Look for the preserved apse, cantoria and side niches inside the present-day rooms.

The name comes from Cecco Ficoccia (Ceccus de Ficocia), who paid towards the church's construction; a document of the late 12th century in the archive of San Silvestro in Capite first records it. In 1584 Gregory XIII had the Collegio dei Maroniti built beside it, and the Maronites officiated here until the early 19th century, hence the name chiesa dei Maroniti.
