Chiesa di San Teodoro al Palatino
The Church of St Theodore on the Palatine is an Orthodox place of worship built in the 6th century. The mosaic in the apse dates from the 6th century. Rebuilt under Pope Nicholas V (1447-1455), it was renovated two centuries later, in 1643, by Cardinal Francesco Barberini, and in 1703-05 under Pope Clement XI (1700-1721). It was then entrusted to the Society of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Pope John Paul II granted the use of the church to the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople and to the Greek Orthodox community in Rome.
