Also, of great importance is the Sacro Monte di Domodossola that overlooks the town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2003 along with 8 other similar sites in Piedmont and Lombardy.
Of less importance but a nice piece of trivia; Domodossola is the word Italians use for D in their phonetic alphabet when speaking on the phone. So rather than Alpha for A or Bravo for B, it's Ancona, Bologna, Como, Domodossola, Empoli and so on.
