몬칼리에리 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

18세기 후반에 지어진 작은 교회는 예쁘고 매우 전형적이며 자연 환경에 잘 통합되어 있습니다. 주변 풍경은 천국 같습니다. 그곳까지 가는 것이 조금 힘들지만 그럴 만한 가치가 있습니다. 흥미로운 점: 일반적으로 종탑이 첫 번째 건축물인 것과는 달리, 이 경우에는 종탑이 교회보다 훨씬 나중에 (19세기 후반) 지어졌습니다.

A wonderful stroll through the alleys of Moncalieri...

The Victory Lighthouse, also known as the Maddalena Lighthouse, is a colossal monument dedicated to the Winged Victory, located at the top of the Memorial Park near the Maddalena Hill. The optics of the lighthouse are located in the torch held in the hands of the imposing bronze statue, a work by the Turinese sculptor Edoardo Rubino.

A popular destination for locals and tourists alike, somewhat removed from the – sometimes hectic – hustle and bustle of the megalopolis of Turin, the "Colle della Maddalena" is the highest peak in the surrounding area at almost 700 meters. However, the mountain is crowned not by a summit cross or other small sacred monument, but by a female figure from Roman mythology: "VICTORIA," the goddess of victory.

A brief explanation of the patronage of 'MARY OF THE SNOW', which is not often encountered: This takes us far back in church history to the fourth or fifth century, and geographically speaking, from Piedmont to Rome. On August 5, 363, at the site where the church of Santa Maria Maggiore stands today, the so-called "Miracle of the Snow" occurred. That is, on that day, in the middle of summer, snow lay on the ground that morning because Our Lady wanted a church dedicated to her to be built on that spot. She expressed this wish in a vision to a wealthy couple – who financed the construction – and to the Bishop of Rome, Pope Liberius. The Roman church has the rank of a patriarchal basilica (papal basilica); it is the origin of all churches and chapels with this patronage. In the liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church, the date 5 August, the day of the consecration of the Church (Anno Domini 432 by Pope Sixtus III), is a “non-obligatory memorial day”.
