What is Damanhur?

The Temples of Humankind are the sacred heart of Damanhur, federation of spiritual communities. Damanhur is a worldwide movement that inspires the lives of thousands of people committed to leaving a positive mark on the world.

The central part of Damanhur is located between Turin and Aosta, in an uncontaminated valley at the foot of the Piedmont Alps. The six-hundred citizens who live there have created a multilingual society, open to exchanges with the world and the different cultures of peoples. Many other Damanhurians live in other parts of Italy and all over the world and support the Federation’s ideals and projects.

Damanhur was founded thanks to the inspiration of Oberto Airaudi, Falco Tarassaco (1950-2013). Falco was a philosopher, healer, writer and artist, active in the field of therapeutic research and new sciences. An innovative and prolific painter, he created a personal style of painting called “Selfic Painting”. From an early age, he manifested a precise spiritual vision and great healing abilities that he developed them through constant experimentation.

The Temples of Humankind

The Temples of Humankind are exquisite works of art, a complex of eight halls adorned with remarkable paintings, mosaics, sculptures and glass art-all created to celebrate universal spirituality.

The Temples were constructed through the ingenuity and creativity of Damanhurians, who worked together to excavate the rock of a mountain entirely by hand. It is an “impossible” dream that awes and inspires thousands of visitors every year. The Temples are a stunning example of sacred and secular art coming together to resonate values that are important to the whole of humanity.
