The Chiesa del Santissimo Salvatore or Church of the Holiest Savior is a Roman Catholic church (or oratory) located in the town of Enna in Sicily, Italy.

History

The church was initially built in 1261 as a private chapel adjacent to the Basilian Monastery. The Confraternity of the Collegio del SS. Salvatore raised funds in 1572 to finance construction of the present church, completed in 1579. A few columns from the Basilian cloister are seen in the inner courtyard.

The interior of the church is decorated with a ceiling of framed oak cassettoni. The floor is decorated with artistic ceramics. The church contains a crucifix dating to 1262 and a 17th-century wooden statue of the Dead Christ which stands in the main altar. The Crypt of the church has a statue of the Resurrected Christ, which is displayed in an Easter procession.

In the 18th-century, the church was further decorated with a reliquary of St Erasmus made of alabaster with a statue of the Madonna delle Vittorie, also called del Cardellino. The church and its artworks has undergone a number of recent restorations.[1]
