About this experience
This half-day tour begins in Turin and takes you to the Sacra di San Michele, an abbey located on the summit of Mount Pirchiriano. The site is known for its Romanesque architecture and breathtaking views of the Alps and the Val di Susa valley. Participants will climb 243 steps to reach the marble "Doorway of the Zodiac" (Porta dello Zodiaco), which features a unique design. The tour includes visits to the 12th-century "Doorway of the Zodiac" and the "Staircase of the Dead," where an 18-meter high pillar supports the church and tower. The experience suits those interested in architecture and history, but may not be suitable for individuals with mobility issues due to the stairs involved. Be prepared for a moderate physical challenge and enjoy the views before returning to Turin.
