Santa Croce di Magliano

Santa Croce di Magliano is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Campobasso in the Italian region Molise, located about 30 km northeast of Campobasso. The settlement was formerly inhabited by an Arbëreshë community, who have since assimilated.

S. Croce di Magliano is on a hilltop approximately 608 m above sea level, just north of the Fortore river. In the Middle Ages the Roman settlements gave rise to "casali", or rural hamlets, and in the Hohenstaufen period (13th century) Santa Croce is recorded as a fiefdom of the Stipide family. In 1266 it became a fiefdom of the Monastery of Sant'Eustachio.

Among the local churches are Sant'Antonio da Padova and San Giacomo.

Santa Croce di Magliano borders the following municipalities: Bonefro, Castelnuovo della Daunia, Montelongo, Rotello, San Giuliano di Puglia, Torremaggiore.
