Basilica di Santa Cecilia in Trastevere, believed to stand on the site of Saint Cecilia’s home, showcases stunning medieval architecture and a tranquil courtyard. The highlight is the magnificent 9th-century mosaic in the apse, while the Baroque statue of Santa Cecilia by Stefano Maderno offers a poignant tribute. Visitors can descend into the crypt to explore evocative ruins and frescoed chapels, including Pietro Cavallini’s vibrant Last Judgment. Photographers enjoy the interplay of light on the columns, and music lovers may catch concerts honoring the patron saint of musicians. Modest attire is advised, and admission is often free.
