Pilgrimage and spirituality along the Via Francigena iz 529 €

Opis

Legends tell of Lombard kings or runaway princesses who, crossing these lands in the Early Middle Ages, came across divine apparitions. Impressed by these visions, those ancient saints signaled the place of their conversion by having an abbey built on it, in perennial memory, and then decorating it with important relics: the stone that received the blood of the Saviour during the flogging, a piece of the sheet in which his body was wrapped in the tomb, the thorns of his crown and so on. The territory was crossed by the Via Francigena or Romea, which from Canterbury led pilgrims to Rome, as is attested by the diary of the Saxon bishop Sigeric. Along the way all the most important places of worship were opened. Some stretches of this road are still visible, among the hills of the Val d'Orcia, in the winding roads of the upper Lazio. The tour, completely guided, will provide the traveller with adequate knowledge to appreciate not only the historical aspect of the places to be visited, but also the artistic one.
