Monte Soratte

Monte Soratte (ancient: Soracte) is a mountain ridge in the Metropolitan City of Rome, central Italy.[4] Mount Soratte was mentioned by Horace ("vides ut alta stet nive candidum Soracte?"[6] The church of Santa Maria delle Grazie was built in 1835 over a pre-existing 16th-century edifice and houses a once highly venerated image of the Madonna.[citation needed] Johann Wolfgang von Goethe mentioned the peak in Italian Journey, his diary of his travels through Italy from 1786–1788."[7] In his 1902 memoir The Path to Rome, Hilaire Belloc sketched the mountain in the final days of his walking pilgrimage from Toul and wrote: "It stood up like an acropolis, but it was a citadel for no city.
