Nostra Signora dell'Acquasanta Sanctuary, Baroque sanctuary in Acquasanta, Genoa, Italy.

The sanctuary is a baroque building marked by ornate exterior decoration and a grand facade. Inside, traditional religious furnishings and artworks are arranged to create a devotional space for worship.

Construction of the sanctuary began in the late 1600s as part of the region's religious growth. Over centuries, it became an important pilgrimage destination for those seeking spiritual connection.

The sanctuary's name refers to holy water that holds spiritual meaning for pilgrims who come here. Visitors find a place where the faithful gather for personal prayer and devotion throughout the year.

The exterior staircase leading to the entrance is steep and requires some effort to climb. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and allow time to explore the building at a leisurely pace.

The sacred staircase is a distinctive feature where visitors climb step by step while praying. This practice combines physical movement with spiritual devotion in a very personal way.
