Basílica de Nuestra Señora de las Misericordias, Santa Rosa de Osos, Minor basilica in Santa Rosa de Osos, Colombia.
The basilica features four identical facades and a 74-meter spire, making it the tallest building in Santa Rosa de Osos at 2,550 meters above sea level.
The construction of the basilica began on September 8, 1950, and concluded in 1971, following the vision of Bishop Miguel Angel Builes for a Marian sanctuary.
The basilica holds annual celebrations from August 30 to September 8, gathering local communities for religious ceremonies and traditional festivities.
The crypt beneath the basilica functions as an auxiliary chapel containing priest tombs and community ossuaries, with recent renovations completed in 2023.
The architectural design combines modern mid-20th century elements with Greek cross layout, high vaults, and pointed arches that define its structural character.
