Il Santuario di Montallegro, tutte le foto.
Il santuario della Basilica di Nostra Signora di Montallegro è uno dei luoghi di culto più importanti della provincia di Genova.
E’ proprio sulle alture di Rapallo (a 600 metri d’altezza circa) ed è proprio una bella passeggiata andarlo a vedere.
Io avevo fatto il sentiero che da Chiavari lo raggiunge, in qualche ora di cammino.

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.
