The Church of Sant'Adriano al Foro (Italian for St. (H)Adrian at the Roman Forum) was a conversion of theCuria Julia, which had housed the Senate of Ancient Rome, byPope Honorius I in 630.

The end of the sixth and the beginning of the seventh century mark for Rome a period of profound decay.[1] The curia had been abandoned until Honorius decided to erect the church.

Its name refers to the martyrAdrian of Nicomedia. Paintings are still visible in a side chapel which depict scenes from the life of St. Adrian; there are also some Byzantine paintings.[2] It was designated byPope Sergius I (687-701) as the starting point for thelitanies during certain the procession liturgical feasts of the Virgin Mary, Presentation in the Temple, Annunciation, Assumption and Nativity.[3]Pope Gregory IX made substantial changes to the building in 1228.

In 1590 the relics of saintsPapias and Maurus were rediscovered in the church and transferred toSanta Maria in Vallicella. In the 17th century, its large bronze doors were moved by order ofPope Alexander VII to adorn the main portal of theBasilica of St. John Lateran.[2]

Reconstruction as Curia Julia

[edit]

Its structure was modified multiple times before it was deconsecrated in the 1930s to recover the ancient structure of the building. On either side of the entrance are niches corresponding to medieval burials. The painting of the Holy Family, a product of the school of Raphael, was moved to the modernChurch of Santa Maria della Mercede (1958), and the dedication to Saint Adrian added to that church.[4]

Cardinal deaconry

[edit]

It was established in 734 as Cardinal Deaconry of S. Adriano al Foro.

On 25 January 1946, the title was suppressed to establish the Cardinal Deaconry ofS. Paolo alla Regola.
