Sanctuary of San Pancrazio, Gothic Revival shrine in Pianezza, Italy
The Sanctuary of San Pancrazio features vertical lines and pointed arches supported by 44 Gothic columns spanning 50 meters of arcade space.
Construction of the current structure began in 1919 under architect Lorenzo Basso, replacing the original 1647 building initiated by Marquis Giacinto Simiana.
The sanctuary holds religious ceremonies throughout the year and preserves testimonials of reported miracles in its octagonal crypt designed by Bartolomeo Gallo.
Visitors can access the sanctuary daily to view the 1957 fresco titled Glorious Redeemer in the apse vault and explore the Renaissance-inspired cloisters.
The sanctuary gained independence from civil authority in 1741 and received management from the Passionist Fathers in 1886, who continue their ministry today.
