BASILICA DI SANTA PRASSEDE

The Basilica of Saint Praxedes, commonly known in Italian as Santa Prassede, is an ancient titular church and minor basilica. The church in its current form was commissioned by Pope Hadrian I around the year 780, and built on top of the remains of a 5th century structure. It was designed to house the bones of Saint Praxedes and Saint Pudentiana, the daughters of Saint Pudens, traditionally St. Paul's first Christian convert in Rome.
