San Cosimato

Local nameChiesa di San Cosimato
LocationTrastevere, Rome, Italy

The church of San Cosimato is a church located in the city of Rome, Italy. It was originally built in the 10th century in the Trastevere rione and now includes the hospital known as "Nuovo Regina Margherita." Originally, it was built as a Benedictine monastery dedicated to Saints Cosmas and Damian, from whom it derives its name, and it carried the added designation of in mica aurea due to the presence of fluvial sand of yellowish color.

The monastery was transferred from the jurisdiction of the Benedictine Order to that of the nuns known as the Recluses of Saint Damian. From 1233, the church served as a hostel.
