Thursday 7 September
Eremo Santa Caterina – Villa Panza
All day (for partners/spouses only)
You will cross by boat Lake Maggiore to join Eremo Santa Caterina.
Clinging to a rock face directly overhanging the lake, the Hermitage of Santa Caterina del Sasso is certainly one of the most charming sights of Lago Maggiore.
The entrance to the church is through a portico consisting of four round, renaissance-style arches.
The structure of the current building is truly unique, the fusion of three chapels, originally built separately in three different eras. There are numerous pictorial cycles both inside and outside the Church, mainly covering the period running between the 14th and the 19th century. Art and history merge wonderfully in this most striking of natural frames, almost a balcony leaning out towards the Borromeo Gulf, Stresa and the islands.
