It was built by Niccolò III who first transferred the pontifical residence from the Lateran Palace.

Santa Maria in Transit

A short walk from Brunelleschi Luxury Holidays is Santa Maria in Traspontina Church where Benvenuto Cellini found asylum during his escape from Castel S. Angelo.
Today, located in today’s Via della Conciliazione, near the Vatican , was formerly much closer to Castel S. Angelo. It was built by Pius IV in the 16th century instead of an older one because of obstacles to the bombardment trajectories of Castel Sant’Angelo. For the same reason, the dome is very mashed.

According to tradition in this Church there is a miraculous Crucifix and the two columns to which the Apostles Pietro and Paolo were linked to the flagellation. In the Church of Santa Maria in Transcontinental, the imperial procession was also reunited at the incarnation of the German Kings to Emperors of the Romans.
