The Chiesa dei Santi Pietro e Paolo crowns the highest point of EUR at the top of Viale Europa, visible from across the district. Built between 1938 and 1955, the church blends rationalist geometry with ecclesiastical tradition — a wide travertine dome rising above a porticoed facade, approached by a formal paved avenue lined with rose gardens and stone pines. The interior is unexpectedly atmospheric and free to enter. It anchors EUR's southern axis as Castel Sant'Angelo anchors the Vatican's.
