Chiesa di San Lorenzo da Brindisi

The church was built in 1912 by the architect Giovanni Battista Milani for the Capuchin Fathers, who had had their General Curia and an International College built annexed to the church. In 1968, the Capuchin Fathers abandoned the building complex, which was sold to a real estate company, and moved to the Corpus Christi Church. The church, while retaining its original appearance externally, has been converted internally into a conference hall.
The façade imitates the Romanesque style and is divided into three orders, with a portal flanked by pilasters, and arches. The portal lunette is decorated with a bas-relief by Chini depicting Jesus between St. Francis and St. Dominic, while the stucco lunette of the triple lancet window above depicts The Eucharist flanked by facing peacocks.
The interior of the church has three naves covered by cross vaults. The nave is completed by a square apse overlooked by two chancels. Originally, the apse was closed by a wooden iconostasis by Fedro Guerrieri consisting of an architrave supported by twisted columns. On the wooden altar was the altarpiece San Lorenzo with Madonna and Child by Giorgio Soldaticz.
