Reviewed By Tualie - Varese, Italy
It is said that in the Middle Ages, the locals used to shelter in this cave to escape the rampage between the guelphs and the ghibellines bringing with them a small wooden statue of the Virgin Mary that was left behind. Time after a deaf-mute girl shepherding the area, found this statue and miraculously got back her voice and hearing, since then started the worship and pilgrimage to this cave. Interesting religious sanctuary/church with a puddle and water that springs from the mountain walls. Nearby there are clean toilets, a shop and a restaurant where can enjoy nice valley views (only from the terrace but be there before 12:00 to get the best tables!) Plenty of carpark but need to walk uphill, easy if bringing someone handicap. Be sure to wear comfy and anti-slip shoes! P.S. Opens after Easter and closes during the wintertime.
