St. Paul's Within the Walls (Italian: San Paolo dentro le Mura), also known as the American Church in Rome, is a church of the Convocation of Episcopal Churches in Europe on Via Nazionale in Castro Pretorio, Rome. It was the first Protestant church to be built in Rome.[1] Designed by English architect George Edmund Street in Gothic Revival style, it was built in polychrome brick and stone,[2] and completed in 1880.
The church contains mosaics which are the largest works of the English Pre-Raphaelite artist Edward Burne-Jones.[2]
