Description
After the Turkish victory in the battle of Kosovo in 1387 many refugees from Dalmatia and Albania fled to Rome, and this church (built during the reigns of Sixtus IV and V and completed in 1588) was thereafter known as the church "degli Illirici" or "degli Schiavoni". It is now the Croatian national church and has a priests' college attached to it.
