Secondo la tradizione l'origine del Santuario è da collocarsi nel IV secolo, ad opera di S. Eusebio, primo vescovo di Vercelli. I primi documenti scritti che parlano di Oropa, risalenti all'inizio del XIII secolo, riportano l'esistenza delle primitive Chiese di Santa Maria e di San Bartolomeo, di carattere eremitico, che costituivano un punto di riferimento fondamentale per i viatores (viaggiatori) che transitavano da est verso la Valle d'Aosta. Lo sviluppo del Santuario subì diverse trasformazioni nel tempo, fino a raggiungere le monumentali dimensioni odierne tramutandosi da luogo di passaggio a luogo di destinazione per i pellegrini animati da un forte spirito devozionale. Il maestoso complesso è frutto dei disegni dei più grandi architetti sabaudi: Arduzzi, Gallo, Beltramo, Juvarra, Guarini, Galletti, Bonora hanno contribuito a progettare e a realizzare l'insieme degli edifici che si svilupparono tra la metà del XVII e del XVIII secolo. Dal primitivo sacello all'imponente Basilica Superiore, consacrata nel 1960, lo sviluppo edilizio ed architettonico è stato grandioso. Il primo piazzale, su cui si affacciano ristoranti, bar e diversi negozi, è seguito dal chiostro della Basilica Antica, raggiungibile attraverso la scalinata monumentale e la Porta Regia.

An alienating view given by the super-wide optics, very interesting.
Sharp nibble from the foreground to the background makes us get into the details more minutes.
Precisa the composition in its symmetry.
Compliments, as good as ever! ;-) :-)
A greeting
Ivan
