B	Beate Giuditta on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Ein ruhiger besinnliche Ort zolle Aussicht. Leider ist das Kreuz der Kirche bei einem Unwetter vom Dach gerissen worden und nich immer nich wieder an gebracht worden. Schsfe A quiet contemplative place zolle prospect. Unfortunately, the church's cross was torn from the roof during a storm and was not always repaired. Schsfe

F	Family Harbig on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wunderschöne Kirche im kleinen Dorf Carmine Superiore. Bei unserer Wanderung von Cannero aus wären wir beinahe durch den Ort durch ohne einen Abstecher zum Vorplatz der Kirche zu machen. Dieser Vorplatz ist auf alle Fälle einen Abstecher wert - man hat von hier aus einer prima Aussicht über einen Teil des Sees! Beautiful church in the small village of Carmine Superiore. On our hike from Cannero we were almost through the town without making a detour to the forecourt of the church. This forecourt is definitely worth a detour - from here you have a great view of part of the lake!
A	Antonio Giuditta on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nur zu Fuß erreicht man das kleine auf einem Felsen gebaute Dorf. Carmine Supriore. Um 975 als Festung einer Adelsfamilie aus Cannobio erbaut. Die Kirche San Gotthardo wurde ab 1331 im Romanischen Stil in zwei Bauabschnitten errichtet. Um 1500 wurde die Kirche innen und aussen von berühmten zeitgenössischen Malern mit Fresken versehen. Etliche Darstellungen zeigen Maria mit dem Gotteskind, der Namensgeber San Gotthard ( heiliggesprochener Abgesandter des damaligen Papstes) sowie andere heiliggesprochene Würdenträger. Um 1600 wurden alle Fresken mit Kalk überzogen, wegen der darin schutzsuchenden Pestkranken die zu dieser Zeit in Europa viele zum Opfer fielen. Erst ab 1930 wurden die Fresken nach und nach wieder freigelegt. Einige Fresken sind noch gut erhalten und absolut sehenswert. Vom Kirchplatz aus hat man einen wunderbaren Ausblick über einen Großteil des Lago Maggiore. Unten an der Straße gibt es einen offiziellen Parklatz von dem man dann entweder den direkten steilen Weg nach oben angeht oder man folgt einem Wanderweg, der dann von Westen her hoch ins Dorf führt. Interessanter ist der Wanderweg durch den Wald, vorbei an kleinen Bachläufen und alten verlassenen Rusticos. Eine wunderschöne, zauberhafte Natur und Berglandschaft. Absolutes Erlebnis. Only on foot you reach the small built on a rock village. Carmine Supriore. Built around 975 as a fortress of a noble family from Cannobio. The church of San Gotthardo was built in 1331 in Romanesque style in two stages. Around 1500, the church was frescoed inside and outside by famous contemporary painters. Several representations show Mary with the God Child, the namesake San Gotthard (canonized emissary of the then Pope) and other sainted dignitaries. Around 1600, all the frescoes were covered with lime, because of the plague victims seeking protection at that time in Europe were many victims. Only from 1930, the frescoes were gradually exposed again. Some frescoes are still well preserved and absolutely worth seeing. From the church square you have a wonderful view over much of Lake Maggiore. At the bottom of the road there is an official car park, from where you either take the direct, steep path to the top, or you follow a trail that then leads from the west up into the village. Interesting is the trail through the forest, past small streams and old abandoned rusticos. A beautiful, magical nature and mountain landscape. Absolute experience.
E	Enrico Ripamonti on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Questa chiesa tardo-romanica è il vero gioiello della borgata. Un finestrone moderno consente di sbirciare all'interno quando è chiusa. Ha una struttura a due piani molto particolare dovuta al basamento roccioso su cui sorge ma, soprattutto, offre alcuni affreschi del 1300 e del 1400 di scuola lombarda (Carmine era possesso dei Visconti). All'esterno si può ammirare un'Adorazione dei Magi e un San Gottardo, all'interno un'Annunciazione e una Crocifissione. Erano presenti anche due trittici ora collocati per sicurezza nel san Vittore di Cannobio. This late Romanesque church is the real jewel of the township. A modern window allows you to peek inside when it's closed. It has a very particular two-storey structure due to the rocky basement on which it stands but, above all, it offers some frescoes from the 1300s and 1400s of the Lombard school (Carmine was owned by the Visconti). Outside you can admire an Adoration of the Magi and a San Gottardo, inside an Annunciation and a Crucifixion. There were also two triptychs now placed for safety in the San Vittore di Cannobio.
