Sanctuary of the Madonna di Crea

Highlight • Religious Site

On the top of a hill immersed in a splendid landscape of vineyards, stands the Sacro Monte di Crea, founded in 1589. Inspired by the Sacro Monte di Varallo, it was born as a pilgrimage destination and today it is an enchanting place, perfect for walking among the greenery of the protected nature reserve.

Along the route you will encounter 23 chapels and 5 hermitages, among which the evocative chapel of Paradise, dedicated to the Coronation of Mary, stands out. From here, your gaze is lost in a breathtaking panorama that embraces the Alpine chain and the surrounding rolling hills.

Sanctuary of Crea

Highlight • Religious Site

The Sacro Monte di Crea is located on one of the highest hills of Monferrato, near Serralunga di Crea.
A path winds along the slope that leads to the Marian sanctuary and in a wood of oaks and ash trees, it climbs among the roughness of a friable rocky ground until it reaches the chapel of Paradise, located at the top of the hill.
