She's NOT a girl with a broom! She's Blessed Panacea, patron saint of Valsesia, originally from Quarona and martyred on the hills outside the town, still buried in Ghemme in the great Antonellian chapel. And that's not a broom, but a shepherdess' crook.

The patronage of this shrine, dedicated to the Madonna, refers to the town of LORETO. This is one of the large and important Marian pilgrimage sites in Europe, along with LOURDES in the French Pyrenees and FATIMA in Portugal. Unlike the other two places mentioned, however, Loreto is not known for apparitions of the Mother of God. Here, pilgrims can show something very tangible: Mary's childhood home in Nazareth (Israel). Her parents - not mentioned by name in the biblical writings of the New Testament - are mentioned in apocryphal traditions: Saint ANNA and Saint JOACHIM are thus the grandparents of Jesus Christ (their common memorial day in the calendar of saints is July 26). When the time of the Christian kingdoms in the Holy Land came to an end towards the end of the 13th century, crusaders probably dismantled the venerated building in Nazareth and brought it to Europe. But this very sober assumption is contradicted by a much more interesting legend: According to it, four angels carried out the translation and flew the house over the Mediterranean.

The chapel of the Madonna di Loreto stands in an isolated position upon entering Varallo. It is of particular artistic interest for the elegance of its Renaissance architecture and for the extensive external and internal decorative apparatus. Some of these decorations are the work of Gaudenzio Ferrari, executed between 1514 and 1521.

In Varallo, on the bridge over the Mastallone stream, there is a monument to soldier Giacomo Antonini. The statue was made by sculptor Pietro della Vedova. Historical interpretation: Giacomo Antonini started his military career in 1811. As an officer in the army of Napoleon I, he was first in Dalmatia and then in Russia. Here he was captured, fled to Siberia and upon returning home was decorated with the Legion of Honor and promoted to lieutenant colonel. Later in his military career he led an expedition to Savoy and during the battle of Monte Berico he lost his right arm (the amputated limb, later embalmed, is preserved in the Varallo Art Gallery). He was deputy of the Kingdom of Sardinia for four terms, from 1848 to 1853.

A climb worth doing for those who are passionate about cycling, this was a stage of the Giro d'Italia. The top part of the climb does not have optimal asphalt but is still feasible, perhaps worth considering for those who want to do it with very "racing" wheels and tyres.
