La scalinata del Santuario di Montallegro.
Arrivando al Santuario sopra a Rapallo si deve affrontare un bel sentiero che termina in una bella e ripida scalinata.

Considered one of the main Marian sanctuaries in the metropolitan area of ​​Genoa and Liguria, it was built by the people of Rapallo between 1557 and 1558, together with the adjoining shelter for pilgrims, after the apparition of the Virgin Mary on 2 July 1557 to the farmer Giovanni Chichizola. The current marble façade dates back to the renovation carried out by the Milanese architect Luigi Rovelli in 1896, and inaugurated with a solemn ceremony on 21 June of that year.
