DESCRIZIONE:
Built between the Eighth and Twelfth Centuries on the spot in which, according to legend, the saint, exposed to public humiliation completely naked, was miraculously covered by instantaneously-grown long hair. The church was brought to its current form in the middle of the 1600s under Pope Innocent X Pamphilj. The church became a sort of Palatine Chapel for the Pamphilj neighborhood par excellence. The work was started by Girolamo and Carlo Rainaldi and completed by Francesco Borromini. The interior, in the form of a greek cross, holds sculptural masterpieces from the roman baroque after Bernini and Algardi.
