Sacro Monte di Crea

The "Holy Mountain" Sacro Monte di Crea was built from 1589 by Costantino Massino, Prior of the ancient Marian pilgrimage church, which stands on the hills of Monferrato. The chapels that were originally dedicated to the life of Mary, are located on a fairly steep devotional route that begins at the church and reached its peak in the Paradise Chapel.

Due to the early nineteenth century made the destruction of the complex was extensively rebuilt.
