The station is located in Piazzale Appio at the beginning of Via Appia Nuova, beside the Basilica di San Giovanni in Laterano, from which the station takes its name.

It opened in 1980 on Line A. On May 12, 2018, Line C was extended to the station. It serves as the westernmost terminus of Line C, pending its extension to Fori Imperiali, which is currently under construction.[1]

San Giovanni is the first stop on the Rome Metro which is part of the Archeostation circuit. Archaeological finds discovered during the works of the new Line C are exhibited inside the stations.
