From a Celtic and Roman sanctuary to the Matarella fortress and a Capuchin monastery, this spiritual place tells an amazing story.

In 1656, two Capuchins chose the hill of Colle Mattarella, above Domodosso, to make it a place of pilgrimage. Twelve chapels were built, each with a statue or fresco depicting the Stations of the Cross, with an additional chapel depicting the Resurrection of Christ. At the top of Colle Mattarella stands the octagonal Sanctuary of the Holy Cross, the construction of which began in 1657. In the park of the Sacro Monte di Domodossola are the remains of the Mattarella Castle, destroyed in 1415 by Swiss soldiers who wanted to conquer the Ossola Valley and take it from the Duchy of Milan. In 1656, two Capuchins from the Domodossola monastery, Father Gioacchino from Cassano and Father Andrea from Rho, decided to have Stations of the Cross built on the slopes of Colle Mattarella, leading to a church dedicated to the Holy Cross. It was planned to gradually replace the crosses with chapels for the individual Stations of the Cross. Bishop Guido Maria Odescalchi commissioned the legal scholar Giovanni Matteo Capis to coordinate the project and named the hill Monte Calvario ("Calvary"), as the places of worship of the Sacri Monti ("holy mountains") were intended to symbolize the sites in the Holy Land that many pilgrims could not or could no longer reach. The construction work and the technical implementation were entrusted to the architect Tomaso Lazzaro from the Val d'Intelvi. The foundation stone for the pilgrimage site was laid on July 8, 1657, and in March 1662 the first Holy Mass was celebrated at the altar on which a crucifix by Dionigi Bussola had just been erected. A great benefactor and financier of the project was Kaspar Stockalper, a merchant, notary and governor from the Valais who was forced into exile in Domodossola, directly on Monte Calvario, where his figure embodies St. Gaspar, one of the Three Kings, in the 15th chapel of the Sacro Monte. The project to build the chapels was completed in the course of the 18th century; their furnishings have been constantly restored or renewed since then; the most recent statues, from 1957, are carved in wood.

The hill of Mattarella, south of Domodossola, rises on the plain of the Ossola Valley at an altitude of 413 metres. From the hill you can enjoy a splendid view of Domodossola and the mountains that frame the Ossola Valley around the city. Inhabited in ancient times, the hill probably takes its name from a pagan site for the Matrons, on which and around which a church dedicated to the Virgin Mary was later built. The hill of Mattarella was occupied by the military in the 7th century and housed a sprawling castle that was attacked and destroyed several times over the centuries. In 1014, Emperor Henry II transferred the castle to the church in Novara and the Bishop of Novara moved his palace and curia here. In 1312 the Visconti came to power in the Ossola Valley: the Mattarella Castle also became the property of the Duchy of Milan and retained its functions, especially the military ones, until 1415, when the Swiss, coming from the Alpine passes to conquer the Ossola Valley, practically demolished it completely, destroying the Bishop's Palace, the enclosure and the main towers. After these dramatic events, only a few traces of the old fortress remain today: the tower on the top of the mountain rises majestically above them. The long curtain wall is also well preserved. Unfortunately, only a few foundations remain of the rest of the castle, and especially of the sturdy towers at the entrance.

The city of Roman origin lies on the Toce in the center of the Val Ossolane (Ossola Valley) on the route from the Simplon Pass to Lake Maggiore, in a valley widening into which various side valleys flow, on a large alluvial fan that the Bogna, the right tributary of the Toce, has created here. Today, Domodossola has 17,684 inhabitants (as of December 31, 2022). As the (formerly) largest Italian city whose name begins with "D", Domodossola is used in Italian spelling tables for this letter ("D come Domodossola").

The Sacri Monti in Piedmont and Lombardy have been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site in northern Italy since 2003. Finally, you should enjoy the Italian flair in the town. In summer, be sure to eat an ice cream or stop off at a café or pizzeria, it's worth it.

Nice climb, definitely leave some room for the end. Halfway through the climb, there are still 675 vertical meters to go from the 1020! But it's really worth driving to the end point.

Domodossola is the reference city both as a city in the valley bottom as well as in the Toce plain. Important connection point for high mountain towns and villages. It is the main center of the Ossola valley at the confluence of the Bognanco valley, the Divedro valley, the Antigorio-Formazza valley, the Isorno valley and the Vigezzo valley. From here there is a road connection to the Simplon Pass, as well as to all the surrounding mountain valleys. The city center is quite contained and worth a visit, especially the market square.

The castle of Vogogna was built by the Visconti of Milan in the 14th century on a pre-existing tower. In 1515 it was occupied and damaged by the Swiss, and at the end of the 18th century it became municipal property for use as a prison and home. It was restored in the 20th century and is now a historical monument.
