Events Chapel San Bernardino Mesolcina Calanca
Cappella di San Carlo ai Monti
The chapel was built in the seventeenth century in honour of St. Charles Borromeo who a few years earlier had set out on the Monti di San Carlo to spread the religious faith.
Description
The chapel of St. Charles Borromeo, built in 1630, is south-facing. In November 1583, St. Charles Borromeo visited the Calanca and ventured into the mountains to preach against the Reformed doctrines introduced into the Valley by foreign innovators. Tradition has it that in memory of this visit the chapel was built on the mountain of the same name. Along the path to the mountains of San Carlo, there are also two small chapels, San Francesco and Salvatore.
