Quality photo of Morimondo Abbey - Italy

Morimondo Abbey
Italy

75 min

Morimondo Abbey was founded in 1134 by the group of monks who came here from France. The monastery looks like an imposing four storey building... of austere serenity. This appearance was regained after the complete renovation in 2008. Its interiors are worth exploring, especially a fresco by Bernardino Luini, a 15th century crucifix, a 14th century holy water font and a wooden choir which is a prime example of Bramante’s promotion of Renaissance style in Northern Italy. The visit to this abbey offers a perfect respite from everyday life as well as a nice insight on life in the Middle Ages, including information about food, cooking, energy, and water.

During the second half of the 19th century the fortress became a criminal jail, which continued to be up until the beginning of the following century and during the two world wars it was a prisoner-of-war camp.

Located on the top of Monte Figogna Shrine of Nostra Signora della Guardia is a famous destination of pilgrims from Genoa and from and all... over Italy. According the tradition it was originally built as a modest wooden chapel by a peasant named Benedetto Pareto in 1490. The Virgin Mary appeared to him and asked him to build a chapel on the mountain. But, being only a poor man he was afraid he would not be able to do that. Few days passed, he fell from a tree and suffered from serious injuries. But Virgin Mary miraculously healed him so he started spreading the news about this event and start building the chapel with the help of the villagers. During the following years, the number of pilgrims grew rapidly and between 1528 and 1530 news shrine was built. In 1903 the old church was demolished a completely new shrine had to be built to accommodate countless pilgrims visiting the shrine every year.
