San Gregorio Barbarigo, Modern Catholic church in EUR district, Rome, Italy
San Gregorio Barbarigo is a modern Catholic church in Rome's EUR district marked by geometric design and stained glass windows. The structure sits at the intersection of Via delle Montagne Rocciose and displays clean architectural lines characteristic of its construction period.
The church was built between 1970 and 1972 by Italian architect Giuseppe Vaccaro and stands as an example of modern sacred architecture. It emerged during a period when Rome was transforming and new districts like EUR were developing.
The church bears the name of Saint Gregorio Barbarigo, a 17th century Venetian cardinal, connecting this modern Roman parish to the religious heritage of northern Italy. The dedication appears on the facade and links the local community to that distant historical figure.
The building serves as a parish church of the Diocese of Rome and offers regular religious services to the local community. It is easily accessible by way of Via delle Montagne Rocciose and provides visitors with an authentic setting to experience religious life in modern Rome.
The church's geometric windows capture light in a way that transforms the inner space throughout the day. This optical effect makes each visit feel different depending on the time you arrive.
