Santuario Machaby, Mountain shrine in Arnad, Italy.
The Santuario Machaby stands against a cliff face at 774 meters elevation, featuring traditional architectural elements and religious decorations throughout its structure.
The sanctuary began its religious service in 1687, replacing an earlier hermitage that maintained connections with the Abbey of St Zeno in Verona.
The sanctuary holds regular ceremonies and gatherings dedicated to Our Lady of the Snows, following established Catholic traditions in the Aosta Valley region.
Visitors reach the sanctuary through marked mountain paths or by road, with dedicated parking areas available near the religious complex.
The structure includes a reproduction of the Scala Santa, integrating this sacred element into the mountainous setting of the Aosta Valley.
