A special place for the inhabitants of the Biella valleys and plains.
There are many pilgrims but in this season, especially during weekdays, everything is quieter.

A beautiful walk towards the Sanctuary among woods and meadows.
A half that is always beautiful in any season.

A place of worship, discreetly equipped for tourism, restaurants of all kinds, a small step further and it could be the tourist place par excellence, to be visited for its characteristics, for its landscapes and enjoys spectacular views

I would say impressive basil, a must-see if you are in the region. For this restoration no less than 5 restaurants are present on the site. Starting point for walks in the region

An important complex from both a religious and architectural point of view. There are two Basilicas and in the lower, more ancient one, the wooden statue of the Black Mother of Oropa is kept. The sanctuaries were superimposed, as has always happened in history, no matter what anyone says, both cultually and architecturally, on a sacred area for the Celtic peoples, with a spring and a large erratic boulder, due to its central position in the Oropa Basin. The erratic boulder, integrated into the oldest sanctuary still visible from the outside, was considered favorable for births and women from the surrounding valleys came to this place to request it. The Black Mother, spiritual vibration of the universal sacred Feminine, illuminates the Valleys and Humanity with her wide-open eyes. (At least that's what we would like it to be 😑). The site can be reached on foot, partly also via hiking trails in the woods from the mountain hamlet of Favaro, or more easily by taking the road dedicated to it, Via Santuario d'Oropa, from the center of Biella, by bicycle, car or public transport.

In addition to the beauty of the place and the grandeur of the sanctuary to the BLACK MADONNA OF OROPA, the ancient church was built on an erratic boulder where the Druids, Celtic priests, venerated the BLACK MOTHER, the ancient Egyptians called her ISIS, the BLACK MADONNA is the Mother of all Mothers, the Mother of the Cosmos and last but not least the Mother of the underground.
