Monte Sant'Angelo, a welcoming and warm city typical of the Gargano region

Monte Sant'Angelo Castle
Monte Sant'Angelo Castle

In the beautiful Puglia region with a clear sea and a thousand and more nuances, there is the Gargano National Park unspoiled and verdant admired by all those who are lucky enough to visit it.

In this charming place there is a city with the equally wonderful name Monte Sant'Angelo, city welcoming and warm typical of this region. The houses are shining white, the sky clear and the temperatures are mild. I visit this place in search of one of the most famous places of Catholicism in the world, the Sanctuary of St. Michael the Archangel, a world heritage of rsquo; Unesco since 2008.

The sanctuary is very special in its structure and with strongly mystical atmospheres, a place definitely to visit.

In the upper level of the Sanctuary are the Romanesque portal and the very special Angevin tower as the bell tower is called. But the most fascinating and special part of the complex is undoubtedly the lower level with its enchanting cave, which can be accessed directly from a long staircase & amp; nbsp; made of 86 steps, the devotional museum and the crypts.

Once inside the cave, you can admire the statue of the saint candida in white marble of Carrara, the crypts that are found in age environments Lombard and served as an entrance to the cave.
A place so enchanting to take my breath away, this visit struck me so deeply that it left an indelible memory in my heart and mind.

What To See near Monte Sant'Angelo

Manfredonia (6 Km)

Abbazia Santa Maria di Pulsano

The Abbey of Santa Maria di Pulsano is a monastic complex built around 591 on an ancient pagan temple dedicated to Calcante. It had remained in a state of neglect until 1129 when it was renovated at the behest of San Giovanni da Matera and the Pulsanese congregation. By the end of the fifteenth century, the Pulsanese Order became extinct and the complex passed under the Benedictine order. The Abbey is surrounded by various hermitages used as a dwelling that was accessed through ropes and stairs.

Manfredonia (9 Km)

Castello di Manfredonia

Historical news of the Castle of Manfredonia starts from the 13th century when the city was under the domination of the Angevin. It is assumed that Charles I requested construction on a previous structure consisting of rooms closed by walls with communication doors to the outside. In the Aragonese era, the structure of the Castle was transformed. In fact, a city wall was built that incorporated the previous structure and a pentagonal bastion was built that incorporated one of the circular towers.

Foggia (13 Km)

Parco Nazionale del Gargano

The Gargano National Park is a protected natural area established in 1991 and located in the Apulia region, in the extreme north-eastern part, often called "Spur of Italy." The territory covers an area of ??118,144 ha and is located entirely in the Province of Foggia. Part of the park includes the four islands. Here you can observe unique habitat: from the dense and extensive forests to the Mediterranean, from the great karst plateaus to the steep cliffs on the sea.
