Santa Croce del Corvo, Medieval monastery and shrine in Bocca di Magra, Ameglia, Italy.
The Santa Croce del Corvo monastery stands on a promontory overlooking the Magra River, featuring stone walls and Romanesque architectural elements.
Bishop Pipino Arrighi of Luni founded the monastery in 1176, entrusting it to the Benedictine monks of San Michele di Pisa in 1186.
The monastery maintains its status as the center of Dante studies in Lunigiana, connecting literature with religious heritage through centuries.
The facility provides conference spaces, accommodation for groups and families, and dedicated areas for spiritual retreats throughout the year.
A wooden Christ figure from the 10th-12th centuries, crafted in Romanesque-Byzantine style, remains preserved in the 17th-century chapel.
