San Giacomo in Augusta (also known as San Giacomo degli Incurabili) is a Baroque church in Rome, Italy. It was the church of the Hospital of San Giacomo degli Incurabili. Located on Via del Corso number 499, roughly three blocks south of the Piazza del Popolo in the rione Campo Marzio, nearly opposite to the church of Gesù e Maria. A Church at this site was originally built in the 14th century adjacent to the hospital for the incurables (Incurabili), and thus is also known as San Giacomo degli Incurabili. The suffix "in Augusta" refers to the neighboring Mausoleum of Augustus.
