Sainte-Croix, 17th-century church in central Aosta, Italy.

This church features a baroque altar in Valsesian style and an exterior decorated with trompe l'oeil frescoes on its main facade.

The Santa Croce church was constructed in 1682 during a period of religious growth in the Aosta Valley region of northern Italy.

The facade fresco depicts the legend of the Finding of the True Cross, attributed to Saint Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine I.

The church stands at the intersection of Via Torre del Lebbroso and Via Marche-Vaudan, near the historic center of Aosta.

The interior preserves furnishings from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, displaying three centuries of religious artistry and craftsmanship.
