In the heart of the Gargano, perched on the silent cliffs overlooking the Adriatic, lies a place where the boundary between earth and sky grows thin: the Sanctuary of Monte Sant’Angelo, one of the oldest Christian pilgrimage sites in Europe.
It was born around a cave that, according to tradition, was consecrated not by human hands, but directly by the Archangel Michael. We are in the province of Foggia, in Puglia’s most mystical land. Here, in 490 AD, the Archangel is said to have appeared for the first time.
