The rock is so called because Saint Francis met the wild robber Lupo here and converted him to the Christian faith. From that moment on, the robber's name was Fra' Lupo, according to Brother Agnello. The boulder itself is nothing special. However, the story of Lupo's transformation makes it a place of particular historical and religious interest.
