Santa Maria dell'Acquasanta Sanctuary, Romanesque religious sanctuary in Marino, Italy
The sanctuary stands near Rio dei Boschi stream, featuring a marble statue of the Virgin and Child next to its neoclassical entrance with Tuscan columns.
The sanctuary received its consecration in the 13th century, with the current facade completed in 1819 by architect Matteo Lovatti using local peperino stone.
Saint Bonaventure of Bagnoregio visited this location in 1260, establishing the archconfraternity of the Gonfalone of Marino during his stay.
The building contains a single nave with exposed peperino walls, a prominent cornice, and a window positioned above the Most Holy Crucifix altar.
A two-story rectory tower from the 16th century houses a bell from 1792, commemorating the contributions of Calabrian priests to the sanctuary.
