Churches

There must be thousands of churches in Rome.  We visited maybe half a dozen.  Here are a few pictures.  If you want to see more churches send an email and fill your inbox with pictures/








Statue of Pope Clement in Santa Maria Maggiore.  The pope is venerating the relic of the Manger Christ was born in.


Mary Franin the piazza outside of the church of St. Agnes in Agony.  This is Mary Fran's patron saint.











Inside of St. Agnes.  You can literally see inside of St. Agnes because her skull (which I didn't get a picture of) is displayed in a reliquery.











Inside St. Peter's Basilica.













The Bernini Canopy over the altar in St. Peter's.
