Santa Maria Assunta, Minor basilica in Camogli, Italy

The Santa Maria Assunta displays ornate Baroque decorations across its three naves, with golden stucco work and polychrome marble embellishing the interior surfaces.

The church, initially constructed in the 12th century near the marina, underwent major renovations in the 16th century and received its minor basilica status from Pope John Paul II in 1988.

The basilica houses numerous artworks, including late 19th-century frescoes by Nicolò Barabino and Francesco Semino, plus a wooden Baroque statue of the Assumption by Andrea Casareggio.

The basilica maintains regular opening hours for visitors who can explore the main altar, side chapels, and various religious artifacts throughout the building.

The structure stands on a rock formation directly adjacent to the harbor, integrating maritime elements with religious architecture in the Ligurian coastal landscape.
