San Giovanni in Laterano
-
The “Mother of All Churches”, the cathedral of Rome’s bishopric was founded by Constantine in the 4th century. It was the chief papal residence until 1309, and popes were crowned here up until the 19th century. Its most recent renovation was ordered in 1650, explaining the present-day Baroque bombast, with mammoth saints gesturing and gyrating. The remarkable cloisters are 13th-century Cosmatesque.
