Chiesa di San Giovanni Battista, Baroque minor basilica and parish church in Monterosso Almo, Italy.
The church features four distinct levels with a central bell tower and a grand balustraded terrace accessed by broad stairs.
The original structure from the Norman period survived the 1693 Sicily earthquake, leading to later renovations by architect Vincenzo Sinatra.
The statues above the portal depict John the Baptist with Saint Paul holding a sword and Saint Peter carrying a book and keys.
Located in the central plaza of Monterosso Almo, the church maintains regular hours for religious services and community gatherings.
On June 24, the sunlight enters through an eastern window at dawn to illuminate the Simulacrum of Saint John the Baptist.
