Oratorio del Crocifisso in capo alla Ghiara

The Oratorio del Crocifisso features a curved baroque facade with decorative statues created by Veronese sculptor Angelo Finali.

The construction of the oratory started in 1758 at a location where a crucifix image commemorated the plague of 1630-1631.

The interior contains a fresco behind the main altar depicting Christ on the cross with the sorrowful Virgin Mary at his feet.

Located at Piazza Roversi, the oratory stands at the end of Corso Giuseppe Garibaldi, with coordinates 44.695713 latitude and 10.62971 longitude.

In 2011, the Roman Catholic Diocese transferred the management of this national heritage building to the Romanian Orthodox community.
