San Giorgio al Velabro - Thursday, Week of Ash Wednesday
San Giorgio al Velabro is a hidden gem tucked behind the Arch of Janus and near the site where Romulus and Remus were said to have washed ashore. This ancient church features a fascinating interior with mismatched columns repurposed from Roman buildings and a beautiful fresco of St. George. Located near the Arch of the Moneychangers, the church survived a significant mafia car bomb in the 1990s. Join me as we explore the deep layers of history in this quiet Roman piazza.
