Of ancient foundation, Sant' Agata in Trastevere is an 18th century confraternity church. 

The church was rebuilt in 1710 by Giacomo Recalcati. The inscription on the facade reads: IN · HONOREM · S · AGATHAE · V · ET · M · A· MDCCX (In honour of St Agatha, Virgin and Martyr, 1710). 
The interior is made up of a nave with three chapels on either side. The altarpiece of the high altar depicts The Martyrdom of St Agatha (1713) by Biagio Puccini (1673-1721).

The Madonna del Carmine
Sant' Agata in Trastevere is home to the much-venerated statue of the Madonna del Carmine (Our Lady of Mount Carmel), which is also known as the Madonna de' Noantri, and she is the patron of Trastevere. Noantri comes from di noi altri, which roughly means 'us lot', a reference to the Trasteverini, the inhabitants of Trastevere.
