Basilica Minore dei Santi Filippo e Giacomo, Minor basilica in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy

The basilica features a single nave with shallow niches, concluding at a large presbytery illuminated by two rectangular windows.

The current church structure replaced two previous buildings from the 16th and 13th centuries, with construction taking place between 1769 and 1775.

The interior walls display Franz Anton Zeiler's frescoes, including The Martyrdom of Saint James and The Expulsion of the Merchants from the Temple.

The church underwent complete restoration between 2007 and 2009, returning both internal and external architecture to their original conditions.

The main altar, constructed in 1773 by Johann Müssack Jr, features wooden figures of Saints Peter and Paul decorated with stucco.
