St Paul Within the Walls

St. Paul Within the Walls is the Amerian Episcopal church in Rome.  It is one block down Via Nazionale from our hotel in Rome, the Quirinale.

The church was built between 1873 - 1876 and features mosaics by George Breck and Sir Edward Burne-Jones.

There is also a beautiful garden, designed to feature their collection of Peter Rockwell sculptures.

St. Paul's has a very active ministry with political refugees in Rome and provides an oasis where they can learn English, Italian, computer and job skills, or just relax among their peers.

The parish also has an extensive music program that takes advantage of their wonderful acoustics and excellent location. 

St. Paul's web site has pictures of their mosaics and links to You Tube videos where you can hear their carillon and organ being played.  To find them, click on "Photos and Multimedia".
