Tips from the Community
The patronage of this sanctuary, consecrated to the Madonna, refers to the place LORETO. This is one of the great and significant Marian pilgrimage sites in Europe, along with LOURDES in the French Pyrenees and FATIMA in Portugal. In contrast to the other two mentioned places, Loreto is not known for apparitions of the Mother of God. Here, pilgrims can be shown something very tangible: Mary's childhood home in Nazareth (Israel). Her parents – who are not named in the biblical scriptures of the New Testament – are mentioned in apocryphal traditions: Saint ANNA and Saint JOACHIM are thus the grandparents of Jesus Christ (their common feast day in the liturgical calendar is July 26th). Probably, Crusaders, as the era of the Christian kingdoms in the Holy Land came to an end towards the end of the 13th century, dismantled the building revered in Nazareth and transported it to Europe. However, this very sober assumption is contrasted by a much more interesting legend: According to it, four angels carried out the translation and flew the house across the Mediterranean.

The walls and towers of Pizzighettone (Cremona) constitute one of the best-preserved and most significant walled circuits in Northern Italy. This imposing military fortress, lapped by the Adda river, rises to a height of about 12 meters and has a thickness that reaches 4 meters in some places. Its uniqueness lies in the presence of "casemates", a continuous series of internal rooms that are entirely covered and communicate with each other.

The historic city of Cremona in Lombardy is dominated by a monumental bell tower, the Torrazzo. At 112 meters tall, it is the tallest brick bell tower in Europe and one of the most impressive medieval structures in Italy. The Torrazzo was built gradually between the 13th and 14th centuries as part of the cathedral complex. Its brick construction testifies to both the technical ingenuity of medieval builders and the city's ambition to express its power and importance. In 1583, a unique astronomical clock was added to the tower, which still fascinates with its accuracy. Climbing the Torrazzo is a spiritual journey from earth to heaven, and it is not difficult to ascend the 502 steps that lead to the final terrace to enjoy a breathtaking 360° panorama. The visit includes a stop in the rooms dedicated to the study of time and astronomy in the new Vertical Museum, which was inaugurated in November 2018. https://www.cattedraledicremona.it/torrazzo-interno/?lang=de
