Santuario di Santa Maria dei Miracoli, Catholic church in Morbio Inferiore, Switzerland.

The Santuario di Santa Maria dei Miracoli features a single nave with an oval dome, four lateral chapels, and a square presbytery with polychrome marble altar.

Construction of the sanctuary began in 1595 on the site of a former oratory dedicated to Saint Bernardino of Siena, with consecration taking place in 1613.

The sanctuary holds the status of class A Swiss cultural property of national significance and contains a 15th-century Marian fresco in its second chapel.

Located at Salita alla Basilica in Morbio Inferiore, the sanctuary includes a modern wooden choir loft from 2001 that houses a Mascioni pipe organ.

The church stands where two young individuals experienced healing through a Marian apparition on July 29, 1594, leading to land donation by the Silva family.
