The Cross on the top of Monte Gottero was placed by the inhabitants of Montegroppo (a village on the slopes of the mountain on the Emilian side) in 1933. In 2012 it was restored and straightened by the inhabitants of Montegroppo.
From the top of Monte Gottero the view sweeps 360 degrees, from the Tuscan-Emilian ridge to the Apuan Alps, on the Tuscan coast from Piombino to the Gulf of La Spezia, on the Tuscan archipelago and the tip of Corsica, on the Ligurian Riviera up to the border with France, from the Gino Maritime Alps to the Alps on the border between Valle D'Aosta, Piedmont and Lombardy.

The small sacred monument we encounter on Monte Gottero is perhaps the perfect place for a brief moment of reflection. A few years ago, Christiane Völkel commented on the wonderfully fitting sentence by the Italian poet Francesco Petrarch (who lived in the 14th century), "Everywhere one has heaven above oneself," as follows: "What is the use of prayer? This question moves me (...) I have found for myself the answer and the certainty that when I pray I am with the Lord, or rather, that when I pray he is often noticeably closer to me than usual. Thus, I retain the possibility of pouring out my heart to him (...) This intimacy with him makes me believe in him."
