    In 1763, the reformed Franciscans, who had replaced in 1603 the Minor Observants, left Sacro Monte because of a dispute with the local community. For a limited period of time, the sanctuary was managed by temporary chaplains.
    During the Restoration period, the local bishop sent to Varallo the Oblate friars of San Carlo and Gaudenzio for the spiritual charge of Sacro Monte.
