Campocavallo’s Sanctuary
Distant about 2,5 km from Osimo’ s center, in the locality of Campocavallo, is possible to visit this beautiful Sanctuary, built in neo-gothic style, between the end of 800 and the beginning of 900 after the miracle of Sacred Image of Our Lady of 7 pains.
The beautiful Sanctuary of Madonna of Sorrows
On 16th June 1892, during the celebration, the Sacred Image of Our Lady of 7 pains effigy was seen cry by the all presents. The prodigy repeated for ten years and there where frequently miraculous curing that attired to the sanctuary a lot of devote pilgrims.
Nowadays we thank the Madonna of Capocavallo for her prodigies in the Festa Del Covo, the first Sunday of August, when dens are brought in procession, carts showing religious subjects in scale, made uniquely in grain’s spike woven… an enormous work, result of the devotion that employ the community of Campocavallo during the whole year!
You can admire those beautiful handcrafted creations in the Museum of Covo, where are conserved the dens of the past years until today.
