Maria Santissima Incaldana, Minor basilica in Mondragone, Italy.
The Renaissance basilica features a Latin cross layout with three naves and a dome adorned with frescoes depicting angels and evangelists.
The sanctuary originated in the 16th century under Don Luigi Carafa, the fourth Prince of Stigliano and Duke of Mondragone, replacing a Gothic church.
The basilica houses a Byzantine-style painting of the Virgin Mary with Child, considered the patron saint of Mondragone since the 14th century.
The original icon exits the sanctuary only once every twenty-five years, while a replica participates in the annual Easter Monday procession.
In 1624, oxen carrying the sacred icon stopped at the current location without guidance, determining the final position of the sanctuary.
