A beautiful church in the heart of the mountains
An ideal destination for those seeking tranquillity and spirituality, the Santuario Madonna della Corona is the perfect combination of history and natural beauty. Suspended between heaven and earth, the sanctuary is hidden in the rocky heart of Mount Baldo, where the presence of hermits is confirmed in medieval documents as early as in the year 1000. In 1974, after countless structural changes over the centuries, the sanctuary was entrusted to architect Guido Tisato with the task of demolishing and rebuilding the entire structure while retaining the most important original parts. In addition, the sanctuary contains a large collection of important sculptural and architectural pieces of art.
