Ossola Valleys
The “Sacro Monte” of Domodossola

The Holy Mount in Domodossola
On the top of the “Mattarella” hill, a place where prehistoric traces were left, the Sacro Monte is now a place of Peace and Spirituality. But, in the past Ages, the thud of battle sounded here. The medieval castle on the rock was destroyed by Swiss soldiers, and in the Nineteenth Century, Napoleon forced the Capuchin monks to leave the monastery and turned it into a barrack. Today the sound of prayers breaks the silence and, in the end, there’s only peace and quiet all around you.
Take a walk in the Gardens and look down to the city, lying on the foot of the hill surrounded by mountains.
