Natività di Gesù
Natività di Gesù is a church on Piazza Pasquino in the Parione rione of Rome. It is the national church in Rome of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
It was built at the end of the 17th century for the Archconfraternity of the Company of the Nativity (known as the Agonizzanti), formed in 1616. Pope Innocent XII granted a letter giving the Archconfraternity the licence to build a church as its oratory. It was rebuilt several times, the last being in 1862, when it took on its current appearance.
