As the patron saint for this house of God, one does not refer, as is common in many places, to one from the large host of people revered as saints, but to the cross of Golgotha, on which Jesus Christ died for us. For those who remain in the church, I offer a short passage from the Way of the Cross meditation, which His Holiness Pope Leo XIV., prayed on Good Friday 2026 in the Roman Colosseum, for a meditative contemplation of SANTA CROCE: “You are king and reign from the cross: you do not use the apparent power of armies, but the apparent powerlessness of love, which allows itself to be nailed to the cross.

The grotto is one meter above sea level at the foot of a 110 meter high steep rock face and can only be visited when the sea is calm. It can be reached via a staircase with 654 steps in the almost vertical cliff, the Escala del Cabirol (German: deer ladder). Alternatively, you can take a less strenuous boat tour from Alghero or a nearby car park. Only a few hundred meters of the extensive, approximately four-kilometer-long cave system are accessible to the public. As part of a guided tour, you can view stalactite formations, calcareous sinter deposits and a small, approximately 120-meter-long saltwater lake that is connected to the sea. Explanations are given via permanently installed loudspeakers in Italian, English and German.
