A long story
The story of the Sacro Monte Calvario di Domodossola is long and complex. Its community undertook to build an exceptional monument of faith. It stands on the ruins of an ancient medieval castle, which once protected the Ossola territory from military threats from beyond the Alps. If you want to find out more about its history, follow this tour.
The climb is quite long and tiring and takes about 25 minutes, with a difference in height of about a hundred meters. If you don't feel like taking this walk, we advise you to reach the square by car passing through Borgata Prebletto. You can scroll through the first 4 stages of the tour on your smartphone, enjoying the chapels with a 360 degree view,
... otherwise, get ready for the climb starting from chapel 2.
