Basilica della Nostra Signora, Minor basilica and parish church in Luogosanto, Italy.

The Basilica della Nostra Signora features a three-nave layout situated within the hills of northern Sardinia in the province of Sassari.

Franciscan friars constructed the original basilica in 1227 after discovering relics of Saints Trano and Nicola, with complete reconstruction occurring in the 18th century.

The basilica holds two major annual pilgrimages: one for the sick in May and another night procession from Calangianus in June, both concluding with episcopal celebrations.

Visitors can access the basilica through its main entrance, while the special bronze holy door, created by sculptor Luca Luchetti, opens every seven years on September 8.

The left nave houses an 18th-century wooden statue of the Virgin Mary, which according to local records was discovered on a beach near Arzachena.
