Santa Maria nel Bosco Sanctuary, Religious shrine in Serra San Bruno, Italy.

The Santa Maria nel Bosco Sanctuary stands among ancient fir trees near the location where Saint Bruno lived as a hermit.

The sanctuary's facade underwent reconstruction after the earthquake of 1783, incorporating reserve materials and featuring an eighteenth-century bust of Saint Bruno.

The sanctuary includes a wooden statue of Madonna from the nineteenth century and multiple marble Carthusian coats of arms from the seventeenth century.

The sanctuary opens daily from 6:30 AM to noon and from 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM on weekdays, with extended hours until 7 PM on weekends.

A granite pool in the sanctuary's square displays a statue of Saint Bruno kneeling, commemorating the patron saint's regular acts of penance.
