The sanctuary stands on a rocky spur (260 m) on the left bank of the Marecchia river, in a strategic position between Montebello, Pietracuta, Verucchio and San Marino.
Its name takes us back to the ancient Romans who called it “Saxum Jani- Sasso di Giano” and there probably must have been a pagan temple dedicated to him.
....
His name appears frequently among the lists of Castles that passed from one lord to another.
...
The presence of the castle of Saiano is confirmed in a document from 1186.
...
In 1356 there is talk of a sacred place where the Madonna called Saiano is kept, venerated and celebrated every year.
...
Inside the Church, dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel, there is a plaster statue of the Madonna (16th century) placed on the main altar with the child sitting on her knees, almost in the act of wanting to separate from his mother to come to us his brothers.
Tradition says that when the Madonna was transferred to the little church of Montebello, miraculously several times in the morning she was found in Saiano.
