Beata Vergine Assunta, Neoclassical church in Guasila, Italy

The Beata Vergine Assunta church stands at the highest point of Guasila, featuring a circular layout with a hemispherical dome and six marble-decorated chapels.

The construction of the current church structure began in 1842 on the site of an older building, incorporating its 17th-century bell tower and select furnishings.

The church received designation as a diocesan sanctuary in 2002, marking 150 years since its inauguration and becoming a central religious monument in Sardinia.

The church contains six chapels, including two major ones dedicated to the Dead Christ and Saint Mary, with the main celebrations occurring from August 14 to 16.

The interior design follows architectural principles from Palladio's writings, drawing inspiration from the Pantheon in Rome and the Gran Madre di Dio in Turin.
