Église Sainte-Croix de Bastia, Catholic church in Terra Nova district, Bastia, France.

The church interior features painted and sculpted baroque decorations with rocaille elements and cherubs throughout the entire space.

Founded in 1542, the church obtained its classification as a Historical Monument in 1931, preserving its architectural heritage for future generations.

The altarpiece depicting the Annunciation, created by artist Filiberto, represents the artistic excellence of 18th-century Corsican craftsmanship.

Located at 4 Rue de l'Evêché in the Citadelle area, the church remains open to visitors until 5 PM every day.

Two anchovy fishermen discovered the Black Christ statue in the sea in 1428, which now stands in a niche above the altar.
