The Basilica of Santa Maria di Monte Berico is an important Roman Catholic pilgrimage church located on the hill of Monte Berico. Its origins date back to two apparitions of the Virgin Mary, which are said to have appeared to the peasant woman Vincenza Pasini in 1426 and 1428 during a plague epidemic. Mary promised to spare the town if a church were built there, which the population immediately did. The original Gothic church was completed in just three months. The current basilica was built between 1688 and 1703 according to plans by Carlo Borella in the Baroque style, with the Gothic structure incorporated into the new building. The façade was redesigned in the Neo-Gothic style in 1860. Particularly striking are the three symmetrical Baroque façades with 42 figures of saints and three bas-reliefs by Orazio Marinali, as well as the bell tower by Antonio Piovene, erected in 1825. Access from the city is via a 700-meter-long staircase with 150 arches, symbolizing the 15 mysteries of the Rosary and 150 Hail Marys. The basilica is an important center of Marian devotion, attracting numerous pilgrims, and was elevated to a minor basilica by Pope Pius X in 1904.

The Palladian Basilica is the symbolic building of Vicenza. Known for the Serliane Loggia, designed by the great architect Andrea Palladio, which surrounds the medieval Palazzo della Ragione, it was included in the list of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO in 1994. Between 2007 and 2012, the basilica was the subject of a complex and detailed architectural, functional and plant restoration intervention thanks to the fundamental contribution of the Cassa di Risparmio di Verona Vicenza Belluno and Ancona Foundation. It was reopened on October 5, 2012 to coincide with the opening of the major exhibition "Raphael towards Picasso. Stories about looks, faces and figures". On May 9, 2014, the Palladian Basilica became a National Monument thanks to the bill approved under deliberation by the Senate Culture Committee on March 27, 2014. On May 5, 2014, the "Union Prize" was awarded to the restoration of the Palladian Basilica in Vienna European Union for Cultural Heritage - Europa Nostra 2014 Competition for the Conservation of Cultural Heritage.

The climb is simply beautiful, with a good view every time. Somewhat steeper sections are followed by flatter ones, with the surface mostly gravel that is easy to ride on. There is only a short road up to there.

Panoramic tour on roads with little traffic. Some stretches of path that can easily be avoided by staying on the asphalt road. Return to the plain along the cycle path

The massive building complex is almost overwhelming at first, but it should be explored down to the last corner. -There are always new facets and insights and perspectives.
