FONTE MAGNA is the most important and well-known spring in Osimo and perhaps one of the oldest because it was there even before the Romans. It was a semi-cylindrical concrete cistern with a diameter of twelve meters and five or six meters high. It was once covered. Drinking water flows here perpetually. For years this source has supplied the people of Osimans with water and historical events that took place in its vicinity are told. In medieval times it was even polluted so as not to allow enemies to use it. Many secret tunnels that were under the houses of Osimane reached the source and the inhabitants of the city came out from a hidden door close to it, and identifiable even today, to supply themselves with water without being seen and thus face the enemy sieges.
