Sacred place erected in memory of the battle between Matilda of Canossa and Henry IV

With the mural that adorns part of the wall here, the artists honor an early female cyclist: Alfonsina Morini Strada (1891 to 1959). The fact that the creators of the mural did a good job of portraying her can be seen in the Wikipedia image database, as there is a photograph of her at the following link =>> https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfonsina_Strada#/media/Datei:Alfonsina_Morini.jpg Apart from the sporting successes she achieved during her sporting career – which spanned a good quarter of a century – Alfonsina also made Italian cycling history: In 1924, she was the only woman ever to participate in the Giro d'Italia.

The memorial found here pays tribute to an Italian cyclist who died at a relatively young age - in a traffic accident, during a training ride of all things: Michele SCARPONI's (1979 to 2017) greatest sporting success was becoming the overall winner of the 2011 Giro d'Italia.
