My family and I stayed at the St. Regis Hotel in Rome and this little unassuming church was right across the street. It is overwhelmingly beautiful inside. The other reviews state it better than I can, but I returned at least five times to gaze at the intensely beautiful interior and amazing Bernini. More

We waited on the steps until this church opened in the afternoon and it was worth the wait. The Ecstasy of St. Teresa is as amazing as you think. The church itself is a gem. It's small so it won't take you long to tour. More

In our view, Santa Maria dell Vittoria is the best Baroque church visit experience in Rome and one of our very favourite churches in the city. It is also one of our very top Baroque church visits in Europe, making this one a ‘must-see’ inclusion during trips to Rome, particularly for those interested in churches, the Baroque era or the...
