Santa Maria in Aracoeli - Altar Of The Heavens

The Church of Santa Maria in Aracoeli. - I purposely seeked out this church and missed it the first day I set out to find it, since it is over shadowed by the Emmanuel II monument to it's left. The reason I searched for this small church is because it's my name sake. Aracoeli (Araceli) means heavenly altar - The city church of Rome, a basilica dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
