A very beautiful church. There are few seats, but it is beautifully frescoed and lit. The main altar and the two niches to the right and left of the altar are beautiful. Along the sides are various crucifixes of various shapes and sizes.

A beautiful church, in my opinion the most beautiful in Monterosso, located on a side street off Via Roma, also known as the Oratory of the Bianchi or the Oratory of the Bianchi Brotherhood due to the color of the vestments worn during processions. The building dates back to the 16th century. Noteworthy features include the wooden choir, several paintings and sacred objects from the period, and the organ. It's definitely worth a visit.

The Oratory of Santa Croce, or the Oratory of the Confraternity of the Bianchi, was built in the 15th century. Until the 17th century, it housed the Confraternity of the Bianchi, so called because of the color of the robes worn during processions. Their task was to manage the hospital and care for the sick. Inside are a 19th-century organ from the Pistoia school and a wooden choir with a painted parapet.
