历史

Tradition affirms that the spread of the cult of the Virgin Mary took place in the 4th century AD, through the work of S. Eusebio, the first bishop of Vercelli.

Over the years the Sanctuary has developed into a majestic and spectacular architectural ensemble of important monumental buildings.

Consisting of three large terraced courtyards, the complex was designed by the great Savoy architects Arduzzi, Gallo, Beltramo, Juvarra, Guarini, Galletti and Bonora, between the mid-seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, ending with the Upper Basilica, which it was consecrated in 1960.
