Displayed: times.
Description:
The Chiesa Di Domine Quo Vadis is built at the point where St Peter had a vision of Christ as he was escaping the Neronian persecution. Noticing he was going towards the city, Peter asked 'Domine, quo vadis?' - ('Lord, where are you going?') When Jesus replied that he was going to Rome to be crucified again, Peter took the hint and returned to the city, where he was arrested and martyred.
There is a modern sculpture of Henryk Sienkiewicz, the Polish writter and Nobel-prize winner for the novel "Quo Vadis"
