The Church of Saint Felix of Cantalice at Centocelle (Italian: San Felice da Cantalice a Centocelle, Latin: Sancti Felicis a Cantalicio ad Centumcellas, Spanish: San Féliciano de Cantalicio a Centocelle) is a Roman Catholic titular church in Rome located in the Centocelle quarter, built as a parish church by decree of Cardinal Francesco Marchetti Selvaggiani, Vicar General of Rome.

The church is referred to as a Centocelle (English: "at Centocelle") because it located at the site of a former Roman imperial cavalry barracks. On 30 April 1969, when Pope Paul VI made it a titular church for cardinals. He blessed its fresco on the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God and World Day of Peace, 1970.

The recent cardinal protector was Philippine Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle since 24 November 2012, and became pro hac vice suburbicarian when Cardinal Tagle was raised to Cardinal Bishop rank in 2020 before being reassigned to Suburbicarian Diocese of Albano in 2025. It has been administered by the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin since 1928.

On 10 March 2013, Cardinal Tagle celebrated Holy Mass with members of the Italian-Filipino communities before attending the 2013 papal conclave.

In May 2022, the parish held an exhibition of biographical and iconographic works related to Felix of Cantalice, the church's namesake and a friend of Philip Neri.
