Basilica di San Biagio, Minor basilica in Maratea, Italy.

The Basilica of San Biagio is a church building situated on a hilltop with white stone walls and Romanesque elements throughout. The interior displays various chambers and religious features that developed across different periods.

Tradition holds that the church reuses a pagan temple of Minerva, and Roman material has been found nearby. In 732 the relics of Saint Blaise, patron of Maratea, were moved here. A lightning strike on 16 October 1624 destroyed the parish archive; the relic chapel, built in 1618, became the Regia Cappella under Philip IV in 1629. Pius XII raised it to minor basilica on 10 August 1940.

The church keeps the relics of Saint Blaise, the Armenian bishop and martyr proclaimed patron of Maratea when his relics arrived, traditionally in 732. On 4 March 1562 Pius IV granted indulgences and recognised the miracle of the Holy Manna. The reliquary chapel, built by the local Confraternity of San Biagio in 1618, was placed under royal protection by Philip IV of Habsburg in 1629 and is still called the Regia Cappella.

Visitors can reach the basilica by following a marked path from Maratea's central square. Parking is available near the entrance, making the walk to the site straightforward.
