A tale told through images

What is the Sacro Monte and how does it ‘work’?

This tour takes you to visit a selection of chapels and interpret what you see. It tells you how the director’s real intention gave life to the various episodes of this extraordinary tale. Still today, the Sacro Monte is an engaging communicative project.

Going along, you will look at the Sacro Monte with new eyes and learn all the stories narrated by its statues and paintings.

As you go by, the tour proposes the next stop, but you can still explore other places. Then, you can resume your tour at any time.
