The church is located relatively close to the Colosseum and is open daily from 7am to 12:30pm and again from 3:30pm to 7pm. Even if no admission fee is charged, donations are appreciated.

Foro Traiano, 00187 Roma, Roma (Lazio), Italy

Trajan's Forum and Market are located right next to each other.

Via della Domus Aurea, 1, 00184 Roma, RM (Lazio), Italy   website

Picture is from the outside. Please be notified that all of the good stuff is underground. Check the website to find opening hours as admission is limited.
