 The Camaldolese nuns here started life at [[Santa Maria della Concezione alla Lungara]], but were at [[Sant'Antonio Abate all'Esquilino]] from [[1778]] to [[1871]]. When the Italian government expropriated their convent, they had to build a new one here which they completed in [[1878]]. They kept the name of their old home.

 The church of the original convent was deconsecrated when the nuns moved. The site of the convent is now under the road connection between the Lungotevere Farnesiana and the Via della Lungara. The church was opposite the doorway of the present number 28, where there is now a flight of stairs behind a scooter park.

 Designed by Cesare Brandi, it was completed in [[1925]] as a mark of devotion to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%A9r%C3%A8se_of_Lisieux St Teresa of the Child Jesus] who was canonized in the same year. Attached was a new convent of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discalced_Carmelites Discalced Carmelite] friars, the descendents of the nuns of the same order who used to be at [[Santa Maria Regina Coeli alla Lungara|Santa Maria Regina Coeli]] adjacent. They had been dispossessed in [[1873]]. In [[1942]] the convent became the Generalate of the order, but after the war the friars moved out and the complex passed to the State. It is presently in the possession of the legal department of the Ministry of Defence.

 The Carmelite order focused devotion to the saint on the new church of [[Santa Teresa del Bambin Gesù in Panfilo]]. She has not been lucky in Rome, as the parish there was suppressed in [[2012]].

 The gardens are now mostly occupied by an enormous, cheap and scabrous building which looks as if it dates from the 1950's. Up until recently the chapel overlooked a scruffy and weedy corner of the property and itself was in a bad state of repair, but in the last few years (2010 or so) has been noticed, and money is being spent on its restoration.
 ==Appearance==
 This is a small and short rectangular building with a pitched and tiled roof, the fabric being in brick which was rendered in an ochre yellow. Most of the paint had peeled off before the recent restoration. The edifice is actually a lean-to, because the rear and right hand side walls are part of the old garden wall of the convent. This continues in disjunctive stretches along the Vicolo del Cedro, although much of it has been knocked through and lowered.
