Santissimo Crocifisso, Neoclassical shrine in Longiano, Italy.

The Santissimo Crocifisso features a Latin cross single nave layout with a stone facade and decorative architectural elements throughout the structure.

The shrine originated in 1236 as Chiesa della Santissima Annunciata when canon Erasmo Campanacci established it on former marshland outside the city walls.

European pilgrims returning from Rome in 1399 presented the church with a crucifix that became the centerpiece of religious ceremonies and processions.

The shrine welcomes visitors daily from 6:30 AM to 11:45 AM and 3:00 PM to 6:45 PM, with extended hours during weekends and holidays.

The wooden crucifix, preserved within the shrine, guided pilgrims across Europe before finding its permanent home in this Longiano sanctuary.
