Corpus Domini

Corpus Domini, Gothic Revival church in Nomentano district, Rome, Italy

Corpus Domini is a Gothic Revival church on Via Nomentana in Rome's Nomentano district, built of exposed red brick between 1888 and 1893. Its tall central facade rises to a steep gable crowned by a stone cross, with three pointed-arch windows beneath it and a recessed pointed portal flanked by two smaller openings. A lower brick wing with paired narrow windows stands to the left, and a mosaic of a chalice with three hosts sits above the entrance. The interior has three naves and a trussed ceiling.

Corpus Domini was built between 1888 and 1893 in the Nomentano district on Via Nomentana. The sources name different architects: the Italian article credits Arthur Verhaegen with Carlo Busiri Vici, while the French article credits Victor Gay. It is a subsidiary place of worship of the parish of San Giuseppe on Via Nomentana, attached to the house of the Religieuses de l'Eucharistie.

The name refers to the Eucharist, and a mosaic above the entrance portal shows a chalice with three hosts. The church is a subsidiary place of worship of the parish of San Giuseppe on Via Nomentana, and the house of the Sisters of the Eucharist is attached to it; the sisters officiate in the Eastern Catholic rite.

Visitors should expect traditional church etiquette, including appropriate dress and quiet behavior during services. The best time to observe the architecture is outside of regular Mass times when the interior is more accessible and less crowded.

Above the entrance portal is a mosaic of a chalice with three hosts, a detail easily missed at street level. The church is attached to the house of the Religious of the Eucharist, who celebrate in the Eastern Catholic rite.
