Bergamo | Sotto il Monte e Caravaggio - TRIP CODE: ENARSOTCAR
1 day
In the morning free visit of Sotto il Monte, Pope San Giovanni XXIII birthplace.
This small town of poor farmers came under the spotlight when Cardinal Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli, who was born here in 1881, was elected Pope (1958-1963). The town, which was completely transformed, offers tours of the house where Pope John XXIII was born and a museum. A short distance away, on the slopes of Mount Canto, lies the Romanesque Fontanella Abbey, dating back to the eleventh century.
Convivial lunch.
In the afternoon free visit of the Santuario di Santa Maria del Fonte. It is a sacred building situated in Caravaggio, in the province of Bergamo, dedicated to the Virgin Mary, who – according to Catholic traditions – appeared at the site in 1432.
