The statue of Christ in the church of Santa Maria di Nazareth

The statue of Christ in the church of Santa Maria di Nazareth.
The Holy Christ placed in the chapel in the left nave of the Basilica of Santa Maria di Nazareth, the “white” church located where the streets that climb the Sestri Levante Peninsula begin to rise.
As I write to you shortly after, a miracle accompanies this Crucifix that has been venerated in my town for centuries.

Known locally as “Santo Cristo”, a popular tradition has it that the crucifix was brought to Sestri Levante by sea, transferred to the church on the island and, in 1616, placed here in the choir. Disused and moved to the sacristy between 1690 and 1700, it was spared from an imminent fire due to an event considered miraculous by the population (according to legend “the face of Christ opened his eyes like a living person”).
