The two saints are said to have arrived in the area during the Christian persecutions, and legend has it that they were saved here, through miraculous intercession, from a detachment of soldiers.
Another legend says that the well was dug into the rock by a boulder thrown by the devil at the church, which was miraculously saved by the saints.
Over time, it was believed that the water from the well could cure whooping cough, so the site became a pilgrimage destination. Beneath the church is the shrine of the Madonna, to which women who desired to have a child would climb.
Until a few years ago, it was customary to light fires in the woods around the church during the night of Santa Susanna.
The site where the church is built suggests that the settlement was part of a defensive system to counteract barbarian invasions. The well, located on a rocky spur with an almost sheer drop, suggests that a brazier once stood on the site, lit in case of danger.
