Basilica inferiore, Roman Catholic church in Cascia, Italy.

The Basilica features a Greek cross layout with a white travertine facade and contains detailed frescoes created by multiple Italian artists.

Construction of the basilica began in 1937 under Cardinal Enrico Gasparri's supervision and reached completion in 1947, receiving minor basilica status in 1955.

The main portal displays sculpted scenes from Saint Rita's life, while the interior houses artistic works by Giacomo Manzù and other notable creators.
