Message from Francesco Meola

The Basilica Papale di Santa Maria Maggiore, or Basilica of Saint Mary Major, is a major papal basilica in Rome. It's one of the Seven Pilgrim Churches of Rome and the largest Catholic Marian church in the city.

The basilica houses the venerated image of Salus Populi Romani, depicting the Blessed Virgin Mary as the health and protectress of the Roman people. With a rich history dating back to the 5th century, this iconic church is a must-visit for those exploring the religious and architectural wonders of Rome.

The basilica is located close to the Termini Station
