Basilica Santa Croce, Minor basilica in Torre del Greco, Italy.
Basilica Santa Croce in Torre del Greco is a neoclassical church with three naves arranged in a Latin cross layout. White stucco decoration and Corinthian columns create the interior structure.
The original church was destroyed by the Vesuvius eruption in 1794. Reconstruction started in 1795 under architect Ignazio di Nardo's direction.
The basilica serves as a pilgrimage destination for those seeking to honor Saint Vincent Romano. His presence in the church shapes how visitors and residents experience this sacred space.
The church is open during morning and afternoon hours on weekdays. Visiting times align with the weekly religious services held there.
The pipe organ was installed in 1976 and features thousands of pipes across multiple keyboards. This instrument provides music for liturgical celebrations throughout the year.
