Monte Sant'Angelo is also a destination for pilgrims.

According to the tradition, the grotto, where the Sanctuary is, has been consecrate after the Archangel Michele has appeared here. The Sanctuary, over the centuries and after different dominations, changed its appearence till the present: a upper level, compound by the facade and the bell tower, and a lower level, to which it is possible to access thanks to the long stair (89 steps) that leads to the grotto, to the Museum and to the crypta.
