Sant'Elena Church, Renaissance Revival church on Via Casilina, Rome, Italy.
Sant'Elena Church features traditional Renaissance elements with a symmetrical design, balanced proportions, and classical architectural details throughout its structure.
The church, completed in 1914 and consecrated in 1916, commemorates the 16th centenary of the Edict of Milan that legitimized Christianity in 313.
The church holds regular Catholic services and maintains strong connections to Saint Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine I and discoverer of the True Cross.
The church stands near the intersection of Via Casilina and Via del Mandrione, with public transportation stops providing access to visitors.
A travertine cross marks the location where vicar Raffaele Melis died while helping injured civilians during a World War II bombing in 1943.
