Montichiari: Where the 1947 Blessed Mother Mary Apparition Happened
Montichiari is a town located in the province of Brescia in Italy. Convenient to destination seekers as it is where the Gabriele D'Annunzio airport stands, Montichiari is also the place of one of the Blessed Mother Mary apparitions in the spring of 1947. Santuario Diocesano Rosa Mistica, the sacred place of this sighting, has become a religious site where devotees flock throughout the years.
Best Time to Visit
If you are planning to visit Montichiari, then it is best to take the advice of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and book your trip between the months of April 16th and June 24th. By doing so, you can guarantee that the majority of the attractions will be available upon your arrival. Furthermore, if you book your accommodations in advance you can score some really great Montichiari hotel rates.
What to Do & Area Attractions
A once preexisting fortress on the hill of San Pancrazio by the name of Castello Bonoris, whose doors are only open on weekends, piques the interest of medieval buffs. If an in-depth cultural excursion is what you opt for, the modern expo that showcases what this town has to offer called the Centre Fiera del Garda is within your reach.
VIP’S Motel Lonato, which is conveniently located in highway A4 of Lonato Del Garda and a 10-minute drive to the lake, features spacious grounds with an outdoor swimming pool. However, if you are looking for rooms with majestic castle views, the historic Hotel Elefante is worth the try.
