Der Wallfahrtsort "Madonna della Corona" befindet sich auf der östlichen Seite des Monte Baldo - Massivs unweit des Gardasees im Veneto, Norditalien. Wie ein Adlerhorst klebt er auf 773m in einer Schwindel erregenden Höhe an einer steil abfallenden Felswand über dem Etschtal.
Es ist ein Ort der sanften Stille und Meditation, zwischen Himmel und Erde schwebend.
A madonna (contraction of Ital. mia donna = my lady) is an image of Mari in religious art.

The Madonna Statue is located in front of the Immaculate Conception Chapel at the end of Marfa Ridge road. It was built in 1870 with an accompanying chapel which, legend has it, was built by a fisherman in thanks for surviving when his boat capsized. The original chapel was at one point in danger of collapsing so a new one was built in 1961. This is an idyllic spot for those searching for some untouched countryside, and is often used for picnics.

In the stairwell of the listed Art Nouveau apartment house at Penzinger Straße 40 in Vienna's 14th district of Penzing. It was built in 1901-1902, the architect was Karl Fischl (1871-1937). Unfortunately, I have not found out the name of the artist.

Wooden sculpture from the 14th century - described on a(n Italian only) sign next to it as from the school of 'Umbro-Marchigiana', which I would take a guess at means it is made in a style typical of the areas Umbria and Marche at the time. The sculpture was acquired by pope Paul VI (died in 1978) and donated to the church, that is San Giovanni in Laterano, by the current pope, Francis.

Volastra, Cinque Terre, Liguria. Santuario di Nostra Signora della Salute.
Il culto della Madonna era già diffuso a Manarola nel XVI sec. Nel 1861 la Vergine fu solennemente incoronata.
La corona è stata recentemente rubata
Santa Maria, Vergine del mattino,
donaci la gioia di intuire,
pur tra le tante foschie dell'aurora,
le speranze del giorno nuovo....
Non permettere che
dalle nostre labbra il lamento
prevalga mai sullo stupore,
che lo sconforto sovrasti l'operosita',
che lo scetticismo schiacci l'entusiasmo,
e che la pesantezza del passato
ci impedisca di far credito
sul futuro....
( don Tonino Bello, da: ' Maria donna dei nostri giorni' )
Our Lady of the Health

The Shrine of the Madonna della Corona is a place of silence and meditation, extended between heaven and earth, hidden in the heart of the Monte Baldo cliffs. Medieval documents testify that hermits lived in the Monte Baldo area already around the year 1000 and that at least from the second half of the 13th century there was a monastery with a chapel dedicated to St Mary of Monte Baldo.
The church does not actually hang on the sheer face but instead sits on a thin rock shelf that can only be reached by a thin path.
In 1974 the architect Guido Tisato was assigned the job of preparing a project for an overall intervention that foresaw demolishing the existing church, while preserving its most important and significant parts, and the construction of a larger structure. Demolition and reconstruction of the Shrine were carried out from 1975 to 1978.
This little Portland chapel houses reproductions of numerous Madonna paintings from around the world.
