Panaghia is a small Byzantine church situated in the old town centre of Rossano, a frazione of Corigliano-Rossano, Calabria, southern Italy.

"Panagia" derives from the ancient Greek pan- (whole) and ághios (holy), meaning "All-Holy". Since the church was built in the honor of Maria Tutta Santa, Panaghia would be best translated as "All Saint".
