San Giovanni Battista dei Genovesi (Saint John the Baptist of the Genoans in English) is a Roman Catholic church on via Anicia in the Trastevere district of Rome. It is the regional church for Genoa. The church was the national church of the Genoese residing in Rome. It was built between 1481 and 1492 by the wealthy Genoan Meliaduce Cicala, treasurer of the Camera Apostolica. The church takes its name from the ancient hospital where Genoese sailors were received and treated, as soon as they disembarked in the nearby Port of Ripa Grande. In 1533, the Confraternity of Genoans was founded to administer the church and the hospital, which continued to function until the mid 18th century. The former hospital is still accessible from via Anicia. More information...
