L	Lisa Hepworth on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We only walked past but the church's architecture and design we're absolutely beautiful!
D	Derry Connolly on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Stunning beautiful church. Has lovely and peaceful Eucharistic adoration chapel.
N	Nieves Salor on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Small cosy church but really beautiful and not crowded with tourism. Even it is still open really late..I went there at 22:30 and the calm was amazing
L	Lee Condemi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love this church....I love the little chapel in the back of the church...good microphones...so I can hear the mass...excellent priests...they seem very prepared
V	Vladislav Vladimirov on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful church, with every ornate detail into place. Even though it is so ornate I found it cozy. Especially the Ispania "room", to the right of the Altair, with the beautiful columns and arches. Generally it all looked much more human and nature-bound, with all the stats on the ceiling.
V	Vasili Timonen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Mass is celebrated: Weekdays 8:00, 9:30, 11:00 (not July to September), 13:00 (not Saturdays nor July to September), 18:30 (19:00, June to September); Sundays and Solemnities 9:00, 10:30, 12:00, 13:00 (not July to September), 18:30 (19:00, June to September). Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament takes place in the Spanish Chapel on weekdays from 8:30 to 23:00 (13:00 Saturdays). The church was finished in 1911, but the interior fitting out continued until 1940. The decoration is spectacular and rich, with many depictions of saints in the national side chapels. However, you are not welcome in the church during Mass unless you are a worshipper.
R	Raj Kanani on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This church was built at the behest of Pope Leo XIII , who intended in this way to celebrate his priestly jubilee: the first stone was laid in 1881 , but the works were undertaken between 1891 and 1898 , the year in which the church was opened to public (even if the works were completed only in 1911 ). It was dedicated to St. Joachim, the father of the Virgin Mary, in memory of the pope's first name.In addition to its architectural aspects, the church also has value in the urbanistic field because, with others from the district and the adjacent Trionfale district (partly contemporary), it tells of an anticlerical tendency widespread in the late 19th century in the newborn Italian state it wanted, placing itself at odds with the Vatican, minimizing the importance of places of worship, assigning them any building lot in the construction of neighborhoods in alignment on secondary roads and not, as one would expect, a lot overlooking the main square of the neighborhood (also in this case, where the Piazza dei Quiriti is really close and has simple residential buildings in view).
R	Rudi Hesse on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This beautiful church owns fourteen chapels dedicated to fourteen nations who contributed to the cost of building this church. The cupola was done using aluminium and the stars are made of crystal, creating a special light. If you come from Piazza Navona and seek the metro you can pass this church on the way to Lepanto...
