Orta Sacro Monte

Continuing along the lanes that leave the lake, we climb towards the Sacro Monte, a Unesco heritage site. Standing amongst the limes, beeches and pines, a sanctuary and twenty chapels tell the story of the life and miracles of Saint Francis of Assisi. Built between the late sixteenth and the seventeenth century, the Sacro Monte of Orta has attracted illustrious visitors, such as the German philosopher Nietzsche.
