Was recently visiting family in nearby Mondovì and managed to get on the guided tour up the inside of the building all the way up to the top..well worth it if you have a head for heights

You have to visit the largest elliptical dome in the world! And you have to do the organised climb up into the very top, smallest dome. Glorious!

A place not to miss. It's a breathtaking dome in a very endearing city. With the mountain outlined in the horizon it is really a must go in the area.

We decided to spend Easter in the Provinces of Cuneo, and our first stop was here, at the Sanctuary, it looks amazing and majestic, it is one of the most famous in the region of Piedmont and the biggest in the world, the elliptical dome has wonderful frescoes, really a nice place to visit and see it for yourself and not just in photos, the place is sorrounded by arcades with shops and bars.

Super beautiful view. There is a short tour climbing up to the top of the church, visitors should take it.
