The settlement of the promontory of the site are the natural conditions and the religious sentiment, arising out of the miracle of our Lady of Nazareth.
Due to the difficult access, the site only began to develop in the mid-17th century, growing greatly over the following century. The installation of an elevator mechanic, for connection between the site and the beach, in 1889, came to give a new boost to the population, already so much visited by pilgrims and pilgrims.
The historical-religious interest and an incomparable natural beauty are the major attractions of the site of Nazareth.
