Nostra Signora di Valverde, Catholic shrine in Alghero, Italy.

The sanctuary stands seven kilometers from Alghero at the base of a rocky ridge, featuring a marble altar and religious paintings.

The church, documented since the 1400s as Santa Maria di Valverde, received its current structure in the 1600s with altars decorated by painter Pantaleo Calvi.

The fifteenth-century terracotta statue of Madonna with Child, measuring 40 centimeters, remains central to religious celebrations and pilgrimages.

Pilgrimages begin after Easter and peak in early June, with dedicated support services for ill visitors and volunteers accompanying walking groups.

The sanctuary houses numerous votive tablets that document centuries of faithful devotion, despite various dispersions during the twentieth century.
