Lord of Miracles of Buga, Catholic shrine in Buga, Colombia.
The basilica contains a wooden crucifix measuring 1.30 meters, representing Jesus Christ and protected behind bulletproof glass for preservation purposes.
In September 1573, an indigenous laundress discovered a small crucifix in the Guadalajara River that transformed into a life-size image overnight.
The sanctuary combines Catholic traditions with Andean beliefs, particularly regarding the role of water bodies as channels for divine communication.
The basilica offers daily masses, guided tours, and special services, with increased programming during the annual September celebrations.
Scientific analysis revealed the crucifix consists of mud and grass rather than carved wood, displaying a mixture of Spanish and Indigenous crafting methods.
