   Appian Way and Aurelian Walls

   The Church of Domine Quo Vadis, also known as the Church of Saint Mary in Palmis, is a small yet profoundly significant chapel located on the legendary Appian Way. This humble site is steeped in Christian tradition and offers visitors a moment of reflection amidst the echoes of history. The Famous Encounter: According to tradition, this is where Saint Peter, fleeing persecution in Rome, encountered a vision of Christ. When Peter asked, “Domine, quo vadis?” (“Lord, where are you going?”), Jesus replied, “I am going to Rome to be crucified again.” Moved by the vision, Peter returned to Rome to face martyrdom. Sacred Footprints: Inside the church, you'll find a marble slab believed to bear the footprints of Christ, marking the spot of this divine encounter.
