The Sanctuary of the Madonna delle Grazie is located in a hilly environment surrounded by olive groves and vineyards in the Colpulito di Bevagna area, along the ancient Flaminia road route.
The church, whose first stone was laid on 16 January 1583, was built in response to the miraculous events that occurred thanks to the Virgin at the hill called Colpulito, first in 1462 and subsequently in 1582. The events occurred around a prodigious Majesty where it seems that a reaper, nicknamed Bollone, obtained a miraculous healing from the Virgin.
