Tips

The sacred mountain presents itself as a fascinating garden-park and a majestic rural Via Crucis, which winds along the slope of a hill. At the same time, it resembles a fortified city, with mighty walls, a monumental entrance gate and two squares that evoke ancient Jerusalem. However, people do not live here, but paintings and statues.

On this rocky spur above Varallo, at the end of the 15th century, the Franciscan friar Bernardino Caimi designed a small holy land: a series of rural buildings that reproduce the most significant places in the life of Christ, animated by sculpted and painted scenes, created starting in 1486.
