Chiesa di San Romano martire, Roma

Chiesa di San Romano martire is a Roman Catholic church on Largo Antonio Beltramelli in Pietralata. Its façade gathers a large glazed panel within a massive entrance surround that creates covered access. Built in two thousand four, it became the home of a parish founded in nineteen seventy-three; before the church was built, that community used premises near Via delle Cave di Pietralata.

Architect Igino Pineschi designed an almost rectangular worship space with a single nave. Inside, travertine forms the altar, tabernacle, and ambo. In the apse, a mosaic by Marko Ivan Rupnik and the Centro Aletti shows Saint Romanus receiving baptism from Saint Lawrence in a prison signified by a cross. Since February fourteen, two thousand fifteen, it has been the titular church of Ethiopian Cardinal Berhaneyesus Demerew Souraphiel.
