The cross was built between 1974 and 1975 with donations from emigrant devotees of Our Lady of Faith. According to issue no. 58 of the Jornal de Vieira, dated June 1, 1974, this monument was built to celebrate the double centenary of the current Sanctuary and also symbolizes the exteriorization of the Cross of Redemption, which Our Lady of Faith displays in her artistic representation. This cross is 20 meters high and 6 meters wide. Currently, it is next to this imposing religious landmark, on a covered platform, that open-air Mass is celebrated.
