Overview
Explore the city's sights, hidden gems, and places that most visitors to Trieste miss. Learn about the Freemasons who lived in the city and find out what they did. Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of mysterious and amazing events. Look for Masonic signs and symbols on the facades of the houses and churches. Learn the secret of the Rotonda Pancera and underground tunnels.
Find the entrance to the underground floor, exactly where Masonic rites were performed. See the place where the first Masonic lodge opened in Trieste and where secret meetings took place. Hear the legend of the "Anti-Masonic Madonna" that was installed in the house to stop the strange noises. Discover that Masonic signs are not just decorations of houses. Learn that these are signs for dedicated travelers who, once in a foreign city, will unmistakably understand where they can go, and they will be welcome.
Learn that the main Masonic decor is two columns, three points under the columns, and a portico on top. From this sign, understand where the Masons lived in the old estates. I will take you through the mysterious places of Trieste, and I promise that it will be an extraordinary and amazing journey.
