Annunciazione della Beata Vergine Maria a Via Ardeatina

Vatican City

20th-century titular church in Rome's Ardeatino quarter, dedicated to the Annunciation.

This Roman Catholic parish church stands in Rome's southern Ardeatino quarter, along the ancient Via Ardeatina. It is a titular church, meaning a cardinal holds it as a titular see, and belongs to the Archdiocese of Rome. Built in the 20th century, it represents the wave of modern church construction that swept Rome after World War II, as new residential districts expanded and parishes needed new places of worship. Architecturally quieter than Rome's famous baroque churches, it offers a glimpse into everyday religious life in the modern city, off the main tourist trail.
