Santi Maria e Gallicano is a church in Rome, in the district of Trastevere, along via di S. Gallicano, 2.

This is the church attached to the hospital with the same name, built between 1726 at 1729 by Benedict XIII through architect Filippo Raguzzini, who also designed the hospital, built for treating those with skin disease.

A plaque outside commemorates a 1925 restoration, while an inscription above the portal commemorates the hospital. The interior is a Greek cross with four apses. There are paintings by Marco Benefial.

No liturgical happenings are happening inside.
