Sanctuary of San Girolamo Emiliani, Minor basilica and sanctuary in Somasca, Italy.
The sanctuary features three naves, housing a seventeenth-century painting of St. Girolamo and a silver shrine containing the saint's remains.
The sanctuary's construction began in 1592, later receiving the title of minor basilica on December 10, 1958 from the Catholic Church.
The Way of the Chapels includes eleven stations depicting significant moments from St. Girolamo's life, leading pilgrims through a spiritual journey.
Visitors can access the sanctuary via Via alla Basilica, with a large parking area available for cars near the main entrance.
The Sala della Fonte contains a spring where St. Girolamo reportedly struck rock to provide water for orphans during a drought.
