Familiarly referred to as S. Paolino "little St. Paul", this church's official title of S. Paolo alla Regola (1) reveals its location in Rione Regola. Specifically it faces a piazza whose edge is defined by a section of the Via Maior Arenulae, the main street of that rione, Plate 111. Vasi labels a section of this street Strada dei Vaccinari (2) "the road of the Tanners" because it led to the section of the city where that trade was carried out, Plate 90. A curving, Baroque facade was added to the late 17th century church in 1721. The tall building on the left is the back of the monastery attached to S. Maria in Monticelli (3) Plate 112.
