Diamantina and the Monte della Birra

Diamantina lived in Forlì in the 17th century and was a “healer” by profession. For her potions she used herbs and other mysterious substances, which she reduced to pills, plasters and other concoctions.
It was the time of the witch hunt and Diamantina perhaps displeased some people, because she was accused of witchcraft and put on trial.
Since she was old she avoided being burned at the stake, but was chased out of the city, with orders never to return.
Diamantina then went to live on the hill overlooking Castrocaro, at that time covered with beech and chestnut trees. With the help of someone she managed to build a hut, where she continued to prepare her “devilries”.
The people of Castrocaro got used to that solitary old woman, who rarely came down to the village, and since she didn’t bother them at all they always left her in peace.
But believing that she was having sex with the Devil, who in the local dialect was called “bèrr”, they gave her the name of “bèrra”, that is, the Devil’s wife.
And the mountain where she lived was called “e’ mònt d’la bérra”, the mountain of beer.
