Rome - Domine Quo Vadis Church
|
|
Domine Quo Vadis Church takes its name from the legend that the Apostle Peter, fleeing from Rome to escape martyrdom, met Christ here and, not recognising him, asked, "Sir, whither goest thou ?" ("Domine, quo vadis ?"); whereupon Christ replied "I come to be crucified a second time". Then Peter realizing who it was, was stricken with shame and returned to Rome.
