Nostra Signora degli Angeli, Religious shrine in Arcola, Italy.
The sanctuary stands on a hilltop overlooking the Vara and Magra rivers junction, featuring three naves separated by Ionic columns.
Five sisters witnessed the appearance of the Virgin Mary on May 21, 1556, leading to the construction of the initial chapel by 1558.
The church holds a marble statue of the Virgin of Angels created by sculptor Battista Orsolini in 1624, positioned in a decorated niche.
Located on Via Giuseppe Garibaldi, the church operates under the Roman Catholic Diocese of La Spezia-Sarzana-Brugnato with regular religious services.
The underground Chapel of Apparition marks the exact location where the Virgin Mary appeared above a rosemary bush during Pentecost.
