    "The Sanctuary of the Madonna dell'Olio is located in the municipality of Blufi, 660 meters above sea level. This place of silence and peace is located in the open countryside, about 2 km from the town of Blufi. The name "Madonna dell'Olio" could derive from the nearby source of mineral oil, used as a remedy for some skin diseases, or it could allude to the presence of olive groves in the area in ancient times. The current church, of eighteenth-century construction, houses the statue of the Madonna, the work of the sculptor Filippo Quattrocchi. The oil of the Madonna, commonly called "Olio della Madonna," is used as a remedy for some skin diseases and as a vermifuge".
