Holiday apartment in Marchesino: Church Art, Museums and Natural Arches

Marchesino combines sacred art in the town with museums, palaces and natural arches in the surrounding area. If you are looking for a holiday apartment in Marchesino, you will find a range of themes here to help plan your trip: paintings in churches, historic buildings, distinctive place names and a connection to several destinations via ATV line 41.

Church Art in Marchesino

The Church of Santissimo Redentore in Marchesino houses a “Presentazione di Gesù al tempio”, attributed to the painter Nicola Marcola (1740–1793). The painting provides direct access to the town’s art history without you having to leave Marchesino first.

Further works can be found in the new church of Marchesino, built in 1971. Paintings from the church in Bovo were transferred there. The church also received an “Annunciazione” by Sante Prunati (1652–1728) and another “Annunciazione” by Simone Brentana (1656–1742). It also houses the painting “Madonna col Bambino in gloria e i santi Bovo e Bartolomeo”, attributed to Ruggero Loredano (1536–1609). The painting “San Carlo Borromeo comunica gli appestati” in the church of Marchesino is attributed to Chiarelli. For visitors interested in art, this brings several different pictorial themes and artists’ names together in one place.

Museums, Palaces and Natural Arches in the Surrounding Area

The surrounding area of Marchesino is home to the Museo della Radio d'Epoca and the Museo degli Affreschi ‘G.B. Cavalcaselle‘ alla tomba di Giulietta. Also in the surrounding area are Palazzo Barbieri and the Palazzo della Gran Guardia museum. These destinations complement the sacred paintings in Marchesino with museums and representative buildings in the surrounding area.

Several natural arches are also located in the surrounding area of Marchesino: the natural arch Porta Nuova, the natural arch Porta Palio, the natural arch Porta Vescovo and the natural arch Porta Leoni. The four sites add a landscape-focused accent alongside the churches, museums and palaces, giving your day planning another possible theme.

Magnano and ATV Line 41

In nearby Magnano, at the junction of Via Marchesino and the SS12, stands the old subsidiary church of Chiesa di San Carlo Borromeo. The nearby church has a 17th-century main altar made of polychrome marble. For a holiday apartment in Marchesino, this specific cultural connection in the surrounding area may be just as relevant as ATV line 41. It connects Marchesino with Cadidavid, Stazione P.N., Ospedale, B.go Nuovo and Chievo/Sorte.

A Patronal Feast of SS. Redentore

On 2 July 2017, the patronal feast of SS. Redentore was celebrated in Marchesino with food stalls, an amusement park and an outdoor mass.

Choose a Holiday Apartment in Marchesino by Travel Theme

When choosing accommodation, you can weigh the town’s different focal points against one another: church art directly in Marchesino, museums and palaces in the surrounding area, natural arches as a landscape theme, and ATV line 41’s connections to several destinations. A holiday apartment in Marchesino is therefore particularly interesting for a trip planned around combining culture, buildings and regional orientation. Which of these facets takes centre stage depends on your own interests and the daily rhythm you want.
