The Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca is a minor basilica in Bologna, northern Italy, set atop the forested Colle della Guardia about 300 metres above the city plain, just southwest of the historic centre. It is a Baroque church designed by Carlo Francesco Dotti, with construction dating from 1750. It is traditionally reached by a 3.8 km monumental portico of 666 arches, part of the Porticoes of Bologna UNESCO World Heritage Site.
