Description

San Lorenzo in Lucina è una basilica di Roma sita nel Rione Colonna, non lontano da Palazzo Montecitorio.

La basilica di San Lorenzo in Lucina sorse nel IV secolo, secondo la tradizione, sulla residenza dell'omonima matrona romana. La domus fu consacrata a luogo di culto ufficiale nell'anno 440 da papa Sisto III, per essere poi ricostruita sotto papa Pasquale II fino al completamento nel 1130.
Verso la metà del XVII secolo, l'interno fu completamente trasformato da Cosimo Fanzago, che trasformò la chiesa a navata unica e ridusse le navate laterali a cappelle, divenute poi gentilizie e concesse a varie famiglie. Un ulteriore restauro fu condotto nella seconda metà del XIX secolo, durante il quale furono rimosse, per ordine di Pio IX, le decorazioni barocche della navata e sostituite dagli affreschi di Roberto Bompiani che si vedono tuttora ; fu risparmiato soltanto il pulpito che rimase in loco.
