During the last restoration in 2011, the Church is embellished with the work created by the Master Salvatore Fucci di Fontanarosa, author of numerous works already present inside the Sanctuary.
The fourteen tables of the Via Crucis are inserted in the lunettes along the two sides of the single nave of the church. They depict scenes from the Passion of Christ, taken from the Gospels and from tradition. The faces of the characters are of raw realism; they are the people of the time: women, peasants, shepherds, traders and artisans who crowded along the alleys of Jerusalem and along the road that led to the height of Calvary, intrigued by that scene of pain. However, they are also the faces of today, of those who continue to make non-evangelical choices, which feed injustice. The Passion of Jesus rendered iconically on these wooden boards wants to remind every pilgrim that we are all saved and redeemed by this boundless Love of Christ.
