    Hiking

    In a semi-hidden corner, a few steps from Piazza Navona, is one of the jewels of Renaissance and Baroque Rome: the Church of Santa Maria della Pace.
    The church stands in the place where Sant'Andrea de Acquarenariis was located, named after the water vendors in the area, who, after extracting the water from the Tevere, purged it of the mixed sand.

    Hiking

    According to legend, in 1480 the image of the Vergine that was under the portico began to bleed, after being hit by a stone thrown by a drunken soldier. Pope Sistus IV went to the place and had the name of the church changed to Santa Maria della Virtù.

    The church was then called Santa Maria della Pace to commemorate the concluded Peace of Bagnolo which put an end to the war between the Stato Pontificio, Venezia and the Regno di Napoli.
