The erection of the " Holy Mountain " Sacro Monte di Belmonte in Valperga (Turin) can be traced back to Michelangelo von Montiglio, a devout Friar Minor and lasted with interruptions from 1712 to 1825.

The prayer path is dedicated to the passion of Christ and leads at intervals and often with the same decorations to different chapels ; For this reason, the project appears to be quite uniform in its structural composition.
