The church of THE MADONNA OF SAN LUCA is basilica church in Bologna, Northern italy, sited a top a forest Hill, colle della Guardia, 300 meters above the city plain.. Just southwest of the historical centre of the city.
The contraction of the church began in 1193. A Chapel exited on the hill for about a thousand years.
While the road now leads up to 5he sanctuary, it is also possible to reach it along a 3.8 km monumental roofed arcade (portico Di San luca) consisting of 666 arches, which was built in1674-1793.It was meant to protect the icon as it was paraded up hill. A yearly procession from the Cathedral of San Pietro in centre of bologna to the Sanctuary goes along this path.
