Church of St. Lawrence at the Holy Steps

Local name: San Lorenzo in Palatio ad Sancta Sanctorum

The papal oratory was offered together with relics by Pope Leo III. Holy souvenirs were enclosed in a box with the inscription "Sancta Sanctorum", where the name of the chapel came from. The most important feature of the oratory is the image of the acheiropoietos, which according to legend was painted by Saint. Luke and the angels.
