Santuario della Madonna della Stella, Catholic sanctuary in Cellatica, Italy.
The Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Star stands on Selva Hill at 400 meters above sea level between Concesio, Cellatica, and Gussago municipalities.
Construction of the sanctuary began in 1537 after the Virgin Mary appeared to a deaf-mute shepherd named Antonio de Antoni on May 31, 1536.
The sanctuary contains a painting of Madonna with Child by Gerolamo Romanino and a bronze statue of Pope Paul VI blessed by John Paul II in 1982.
Visitors can access the sanctuary daily from 8:00 AM to 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM to participate in religious services or personal prayer.
During the 1970s, the sanctuary became a center for documented exorcism practices under the direction of curator Faustino Negrini.
