Things to do in Lake Maggiore, Piedmont: The Best Churches & Cathedrals
On the south side of the Alps, Lake Maggiore is the second largest lake in Italy. Since the climate is mild year-round, the area is filled with Mediterranean vegetation and exotic plants. Lake Maggiore was featured in Ernest Hemingway's infamous novel, A Farewell to Arms, when the protagonist and his lover must row across the lake in order to escape the Italian Carabinieri (think police in military uniforms). Here's hoping you won't have any run-ins of that nature.

This sanctuary has an interesting history and you should read it from the brochure (cost .5 euros) you can purchase at the church/sanctuary. The interior is very ornate but beautiful and is well worth the visit.

A fine Romanesque building with adjacent way of the Cross and detached baptistery. It's a living church, with a large congregation for a small place like this. It was pretty full when I went to the anticipated Sunday Mass on a Saturday evening.
9. Chiesa di San Gottardo
10. Chiesa del Buon Rimedio
