Faith has always been one of the core values of mountain communities, so much so that the Dolomites can even count a Pope among its citizens: Pope John Paul I, the “Pope of Smiles,” who was born in Canale d’Agordo in the Belluno Dolomites.
There are still so many places of great religious (and often artistic and naturalistic) interest to discover in the Dolomites. We at Dolomiti Rentals have created two interactive maps for you to discover them all!
Canale d’Agordo is undoubtedly the beating heart for travelers interested in religion, and right here we can host you in one of the most welcoming and renovated B&Bs in the area: the El Lares/L’Avez B&B, just a few hundred meters from the square, the Church and the house where Pope Albino Luciani was born and raised!
However, our offer does not end there, and throughout the area we have a wide selection of apartments of all sizes and prices, to meet the needs of all types of tourists!
And remember: our guests have an exclusive discount for admission to the places managed by the Pope Luciani Foundation in Canale d’Agordo: the birthplace of Pope John Paul I, the MUSAL – Albino Luciani Museum, the Casa delle Regole and the Schola dei Battisti!
Take a look below at the main (in our opinion) places of religion in Agordino and choose where to stay accordingly! 👇🏻
If, on the other hand, you prefer a vacation in the Fassa Valley, don’t worry, this area is also dotted with historical places of great religious interest, such as some centuries-old churches!
