★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Brilliant. The statues of the apostles were spectacular and well worth the visit alone.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice church. But I couldn't find Daniel O'Connells heart. What have they done with it? Disappointing! 3/5.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very ancient church, modified during the centuries. The most delightful part is the courtyard built around a well.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a very old and interesting church, perhaps 4th century and is a hidden gem. Unfortunately, access arrangements have been uncertain and unreliable in recent years. In 2017, one unofficial source had:
Weekdays 7:00 to 9:00, 16:00 to 19:00;
Sundays 9:00 to 12:00, 16:00 to 18:00.
The church is surrounded on all sides by taller buildings, except to the east, and so is not easy to find. The processional entrance on Via Mazzarino is rarely to be found open, so use the side entrance on Via Panisperna. This is up a little passageway. The uncertain opening hours, plus the discreet location, may mean that you have the church entirely to yourself.
The best view from the street is of the apse, from the Via dei Serpenti. It is on the other side of a car park, the gates of which are usually open during working hours so you can examine the palaeochristian wall fabric at close quarters.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This charming church built around 460 was one of the first churches to be dedicated to St. Agatha. She was a young Sicilian martyr who was tortured and killed because she refused to marry a roman prefect in order to maintain her vow of virginity.
She is the patron of breast cancer patients due to the fact that one of the tortures included cutting off her breasts. She is normally depicted in this way, as you can see on the apse of the church.
