Sacra di San Michele
A fundamental destination for medieval pilgrimages and guardian of the Via Francigena, it has played a significant role in the development of our territory and in the history of Christianity. The Sacra di San Michele, the symbolic monument of Piedmont, is especially known for its architectural charm and for its events that span 1000 years of history.
During our guided tour of the Sacra, we will discover the mysteries hidden in this ancient place of Michaelic worship and you will be surprised to discover the balance between the Abbey and the environment in which it is set, both fascinating and formidable at the same time.
It is no coincidence that Umberto Eco was inspired by this very ancient abbey to write his world-famous literary masterpiece, “The Name of the Rose”…
