Near Lake Garda, this is undoubtedly one of the most evocative and mystical places in all of northern Italy.
Built on a vertical cliff on Monte Baldo, it originally housed a hermitage. The current church was built in 1530, becoming a sanctuary when the knights of Malta had the church rebuilt in 1625. Its relative inaccessibility has preserved the site, which has remained almost intact until now. The interior of the sanctuary houses the Scala Santa, a reproduction of the staircase found in Rome near the Archbasilica of Saint John Lateran
Begun in 1212 and completed in 1321, this structure rose along the road to Verona, at the site of the ancient Basilica of Saint Vigilius. The basilica was originally built around the end of the fourth century as a sepulcher for the missionaries Sisinnius, Martyrius, Alexander, and the saint himself.
