Basilica di San Giovanni
Piazza piano delle Croci, Foggia 71100 - Italy

Map
The Basilica di San Giovanni was commissioned by the Confraternity of the Most Holy Lady of the Annunciation in the early 1700s. Legend has it that it was soon to become a place of miracles, such as the apparition of the Virgin of the Seven Veils to Alfonso Maria de’ Liguori in 1731 and the miracle attributed to our lady of sorrows that put an end to a cholera epidemic. Since then the residents of Foggia have looked with compassion and faith at this church, which was raised to the status of a minor basilica.
