Simpatico borgo sito in cima ad un monte che sfiora i 900 metri. Numerosi negozi che vendono prodotti locali ed altro.Aria frizzante

Sicuramente una tappa da fare e se si è fortunati partecipare alla messa nella grotta del Santuario: Sì pensa di entrare in uno dei tanti monumenti cristiani, ma appena dentro ti accorgi che è qualcosa di magico. Peccato che il paese sia parecchio trascurato perché offre tanti spunti culturali.

un posto fantastico, a prescindere dalla fede cattolica. E' un qualcosa di unico, che tutti dovrebbero visitare!

Sanctuaire typique mais avec tellement de monde et une messe en cours que nous n'avons pas pu apprécier le saint des saints (seulement 5 mn par groupe de 6). Sinon, il y a d'autres belles salles à visiter.

Dopo aver scaroccato una infinita’ di tornanti e parcheggiato a caro prezzo almeno 2 euro più il caffè al tipo e ingresso piazza che pretende! Mi avvicino al santuario divenuto fortino medievale: altro che santuario di un santo! Mi fermo stranito ingresso grotta e per giunta vedo un cartoncino precario che inibisce ingresso al migliore amico dell’uomo‼️ Quell’uomo , non di fatto e onore ma prelati e cape pregate che guardiani oltraggiano il bel cuore di cane! Dimenticano le volte che lo stesso animale li salva dalle acque, macerie, tumori, droga e denaro sporco, guardiano indefesso delle mandrie e della casa di quell’uomo poco uomo ! In barba alle leggi italiane su suolo italiano che hanno impedito fare riserve di ingresso nei locali pubblici e ogni luogo di buona gente! Ha senso parlando tedesco far presidiare da peccatori chi si erge a maestro!? Gesu’ torna per favore al tempio dei mercanti e sventola i banchetti compreso quello della richieste di offerte e fai un miracolo trasformandoli in eremiti anche senza rivorrere agli insegnamenti di Papa Celestino V.

Dopo aver fatto una bellissima camminata per il paese, mi sono recato in questa bellissima basilica dove purtroppo ho trovato molta maleducazione da parte dei visitatori. Santuario bellissimo Che rigenera lo spirito e da tanta pace interna. Dovrebbe esserci una maggiore attenzione da parte di coloro che visitano questo luogo. Consigliatissimo.

Bellissima esperienza nei quattro giorni passati a monte sant'angelo girando tra il quartiere medievale (Junno) il castello e le varie chiese del paese, prime fra tutte la chiesa dedicata a San Michele Arcangelo e quella di San Giovanni in Tumba

La grotta di Monte Sant’Angelo è un luogo di grande spiritualità.San Michele consacrò Lui stesso la grotta e chi a Lui si rivolge otterrà il perdono dei suoi peccati Consiglio di andare a tutti
