Il santuario di san Besso si trova in val Soana, all'interno del Parco nazionale del Gran Paradiso, ad un'altezza di 2019 m.. E' raggiungibile da Campiglia Soana, con un percorso di circa 2 ore. È costruito appoggiando tutta una fiancata laterale al Monte Fautenio, una roccia monolitica alta circa 60 metri e larga 40, posizionata nel centro dell'anfiteatro culminante nella vetta della Rosa dei Banchi. La tradizione ufficiale vuole che San Besso fosse uno dei 6600 soldati della celebre legione Tebea, guidati da San Maurizio, quasi tutti sterminati nel 286, per ordine dell'imperatore Massimiano ad Agaunum (l'attuale Saint-Maurice, nel Canton Vallese - Svizzera) per essersi rifiutati di adorare le divinità pagane. San Besso fu uno dei sopravvissuti che si dispersero nelle zone alpine e che - nonostante fossero braccati dai soldati di Massimiano determinati a completare lo sterminio - iniziarono una intensa opera di evangelizzazione dei montanari pagani. Secondo la tradizione, il santuario fu costruito sul luogo del suo martirio, sul quale però esistono versioni discordanti. (Wikipedia) #montagna

It looks protected by a large natural hat.
Beautiful, Hi Lu. :-P

It's true, it's a pretty heavy hat and 60 meters high :-o
Thanks for the ride, Roberto

Beautiful photo and interesting cultural document.
I do not want the friend Luigi Mossali, but I would say that you can safely remove the "seems"...
Seen the place where it was built, which I do not know, the sanctuary is certainly protected by that hat "natural", especially, I say, from the possibility of falls in winter mudslides from the channel ;-) above....
