Annunziatella

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The church in a 17th century print by Giovanni Maggi.

The Annunziatella is a Roman Catholic church in the Ardeatino quarter of Rome between via Ardeatina and via di Grotta Perfetta. Beneath it is the Catacomb of the Nunziatella.

An inscription inside the church by Pope Honorius III dating to 12 August 1220[1] states it was one of those dedicated to Mary of the Annunciation, hence the nickname Annunziatella.
