Since the early 20th century, Ascona has been a popular destination for artists and intellectuals. Towards the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, Ascona underwent a curious cultural experiment: a group of people who advocated a return to nature settled on its hillside, giving it the name of Monte Verità. Under the impetus of Baroness Antoinette de Saint-Léger, it became a place of utopian realization, attracting attention - and political and artistic endeavors. A vast cultural and spiritual project developed around this movement, bringing together revolutionaries, philosophers and artists of international renown.
