Description

Initiation Well is a fascinating inverted tower with a spiral staircase, plunging 27 meters into the ground.

Divided into nine levels symbolizing the nine circles of hell, purgatory and paradise from Dante's 'Divine Comedy,' this mysterious structure is richly decorated with mystical and pagan symbols.

As you explore, you'll discover a network of underground tunnels leading to grottoes, a chapel and the Waterfall Lake. Prepare comfortable, non-slip shoes and a small flashlight - an unforgettable journey from darkness to light, full of esoteric meanings and historical mysteries awaits you.
