San Biagio della Pagnotta[1] or San Biagio degli Armeni[2] is a church in Rome, in the Ponte district, on via Giulia, near Palazzo Sacchetti. It is dedicated to Saint Blaise and is the national church of the Armenian community in Rome.[3]
^'Pagnotta' derives from the small loaves which were blessed and distributed to the poor on its patron saint's feast day (3 February).
^The church is referred to by several other names in medieval documents (San Biagio gastru secuta, gatta secuta, cantu securo, clatro secura, cantu secuta, monte secuto), which all derive from the expression de cantu secuta, in reference to the caput seccutae: in the 13th century 'seccuta' was the popular name for the bank of the Tiber where via Giulia now runs, where the river left a large deposit of sand and silt.
