Votive pillar of Our Lady of the Rosary (hamlet of Antoniassi) | Pilone votivo della Madonna del Rosario (borgata Antoniassi)

Address: Borgata Antoniassi, 64, 14018 Villafranca d'Asti AT, Italia

Located in the hamlet of Antoniassi, it was built as an ex voto by a soldier or returning safely from World War I.

The pillar dates back to 1920 and is dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary.

It was restored in 1990 and the painter Giovanni Pelissetti personally took care of the internal painting and partly followed the external maintenance.

Unfortunately, the traditional custom of reciting the Rosary in May has been lost for many years.
