<span class="mw-page-title-main">Archbasilica of Saint John Lateran</span> Roman Catholic basilica, a landmark of Rome, Italy

The Archbasilica of Saint John Lateran is the Catholic cathedral of the Diocese of Rome in the city of Rome, and serves as the seat of the bishop of Rome, the pope. The archbasilica lies outside of Vatican City proper, which is located approximately four kilometres northwest.
