Church of Santa Maria d'Aracoeli

Church of Santa Maria d'Aracoeli : The Michelin guide review

Preceded by a fine flight of steps built in thanks after the plague in 1346, the church’s façade is flat and austere. It is built on the site where the Tiber Sibyl is said to have announced the coming of Christ to Augustus. Inside, the first chapel on the right has frescoes by Pinturicchio (c 1485).
