The Sanctuary was built in the 5th century where, according to tradition, the Archangel Michael made three apparitions. Through a bronze door made in Constantinople in 1076, you enter into the dimly lit nave, which leads to the cave where the saint appeared. A must for pilgrims to the Holy Land, the sanctuary preserves the traces of their passage: crosses, Longobard inscriptions and even runic epigraphs, traced by Anglo-Saxon pilgrims. Just 15km from the golden beaches of Gargano, the 10.500 hectares of Foresta Umbra is a pristine, almost mountainous, habitat protecting rare fauna and flora. The borgo developed around the Norman-Swabian Sanctuary, transforming the caves of the shepherds scattered among the cliffs of the mountain, in the white-plastered terraced houses of the Junno district. The entrance to the borgo is in the shadow of the imposing Angevin octagonal bell tower completed in 1274. Many the wonders from church to church, like the unique baptistery of San Giovanni in Tumba with the echoes of the East and the Romanesque-Swabian Church of Santa Maria Maggiore. Finally, the Norman-Swabian castle with the Aragonese towers stands on the borgo\u2019s highest point.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Did you know?” tab_id=”1632736629253-b7771b37-2630″][vc_column_text]The Sanctuary of San Michele is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Longobards in Italy, Places of Power, that comprises seven groups of important buildings (fortresses, churches, and monasteries) throughout Italy.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Local products and dishes” tab_id=”1521153098573-ceadd3bb-4824″][vc_column_text]Local specialities include Monte Sant\u2019Angelo bread, one of the most prized in Italy.
