Amid the dryness of the plains, the gushing of a spring is definitely the most appreciated miracle.
And for eight centuries pilgrims have come here for a moment of devotion or refreshment in its beautiful garden
The Shrine of Our Lady of the Fields, is located in the countryside around Stezzano, 5 kilometers from Bergamo.
According to tradition, there was a chapel with an image of Our Lady, to whom the peasants were very devoted.
One day eight centuries ago, a woman saw a great light there and the Madonna and Child appeared to her.
A small church was built where, in May 1586, water began to gush from a pillar with a fresco of Our Lady; the following July 12, Our Lady appeared to two little girls from Stezzano.
