Riserva Speciale del Sacro Monte di Oropa

Guidebook + Map

The survey, which began in 1995 with the sending of a questionnaire to over 2,000 foreign Institutional contacts, has been divided into four areas of interest: historical (chronological, devotional), artistic (materials, techniques), environmental (vegetational, landscape), and managerial (safeguard, financing, fruition). Particular attention has been paid to the topographical and urbanistic configuration of the place. The publication consists of a selection of answers sent to the Documentation Center and of the planimetric and photographic representations of some of the registered sites. Together with the most famous places, also less important complexes have been considered in order to promote reflection on common issues.
