Rome - December 28, 2011 - San Girolamo dei Croati

Barrel Fountain

Connected to San Rocco by a medieval looking sky bridge. Currently San Girolamo dei Croati is the chapel of the Croatian College in Rome, I did not know that there was such a thing. It appears to have had its name changed after the independence of Croatia from Yugoslavia. Not open to the public, however the facade is a rather delightfully rare renaissance exercise in decorative restraint.

Didn't get a picture of the church, but of the fountain built into the central pillar of the bridge. Its got a barrel, really! Tis' awesomeness.
