Basilica dei Fieschi, Gothic minor basilica in Cogorno, Italy

The basilica features a facade with alternating patterns of white marble and slate, complemented by a large marble rose window and pointed bell tower.

Completed in 1252 by Ottobono Fieschi, nephew of Pope Innocenzo IV, the basilica received recognition as a national monument of Italy in 1860.

The church contains a significant fresco by Giovanni Barbagelata depicting Christ on the cross with Madonna, Saint John, Innocenzo IV, and Ottobono Fieschi.

Located at Piazza della Basilica in Cogorno, the basilica opens daily for visitors and maintains regular religious services throughout the year.

Six diatonic bells from 1905 occupy the tower, while the interior displays three naves supported by stone columns with decorated capitals.
