The Church of San Girolamo in Corviale is a church in Rome, in the suburb Gianicolense, by way of Buonvisi.
It was built in the twentieth century by the architect Francesco Fornari. It contains an important and venerated icon of the Crucifixion, with the depiction of Christ on the cross and to the sides the figures of Mary and John, typical of Eastern Christian iconography is the presence at the foot of the cross of a miniature cave and the Adam's skull.
