Tips
In about 1250, following a triple revealing vision to a pious priest from Cassano, the image of the "Madonna degli Angeli" was discovered, frescoed on a wall of the natural cave located on the Murgia di Cassano. The Sacred Image had been hidden in the millennial cave following the persecutions (717-741) of Leo III, known as the Iconoclast. The discovery immediately brought not only the Cassanese population but also a large mass of pilgrims from all over the world to the hill.
