Sant'Anna dei Palafrenieri is a Baroque Catholic parish church in Vatican City, beside the Porta Sant'Anna border crossing into Italy. Commissioned by the Venerabile Arciconfraternita di Sant'Anna de Palafrenieri and designed by Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola, it introduced the oval plan to church design, a layout that later became influential in Baroque architecture. The church is 20 metres tall.
