SANTA MARIA IN COSMEDIN - just a nice church from 6th century (belltower was added in 12th century) famous with tourist because of Bocca della Verita (Mouth of Truth). This may have been a drain cover dating back to before the 4th century BC. Medieval tradition had it that the formidable jaws would snap shut over the hand of those who told lies.

You will love this place. The fountain and Church are wonderful. Place your hand in the mouth of Truth and test your luck. Also note the two Temples.

Not only the church with the famous Bocca della Verità (Mouth of Truth) under the front porch. The interior is very interesting and there is also a precious mosaic from the VIII century !
