Chiesa del Santissimo Redentore a Val Melaina

Chiesa del Santissimo Redentore a Val Melaina, Catholic parish church in Monte Sacro, Rome, Italy

The Church of the Most Holy Redeemer in Val Melaina is a modern church in Rome, built in reinforced concrete. Its facade is divided into three parts: the two lower side sections project forward, while the central section is marked by concrete pilasters and alternating shades of gray. A wide concrete canopy covers the entrance portal.

Architects Ennio Canino and Viviana Rizzi designed the building, with construction starting in 1975 and finishing with its dedication in 1977. The project arose to serve the growing spiritual needs of the developing neighborhood.

The interior holds two side chapels serving different purposes: one for Eucharistic adoration and another for confession. This layout reflects the spiritual needs of the local community.

The church stands at Via del Gran Paradiso in the Monte Sacro district, in the Val Melaina zone of northeastern Rome. The building sits at street level with the entrance under a wide concrete canopy, so access is step-free from the pavement. Bus lines serve the surrounding streets; the nearest metro stop is on line B1.

The church was visited by Pope John Paul II on 5 December 1982. Its cardinal title, created on 26 November 1994, was first held by Ersilio Tonini and passed in 2014 to Ricardo Ezzati.
