caMairaGo<br />

santuario della Beata verGine delle Grazie ( o salus inFirMoruM). Le<br />

origini della primitiva chiesa sono molto antiche. Posizionata su una piccola altura era un luogo <strong>di</strong><br />

riferimento per molti pellegrini. Ai pie<strong>di</strong> dell’altura, in prossimità della chiesa, si trovava una fontana<br />

d’acqua miracolosa che era chiamata la Fontana della Madonna e nel 1682 si decise <strong>di</strong> fabbricare una<br />

nuova chiesa, or<strong>di</strong>nata dalla Casa Borromeo, e venne quin<strong>di</strong> innalzato l’attuale santuario. Nel 1681 era<br />

sgorgata una seconda fonte vicino alla prima che ebbe anch’essa virtù pro<strong>di</strong>giose e si decise <strong>di</strong> e<strong>di</strong>ficare<br />

seven kilometres away from Lo<strong>di</strong>. In 1649, some miraculous events took place<br />

while ploughing his field, found a piece of wall on which was a sacred image<br />

por<strong>tra</strong>ying the Madonna of the Assumption, to which are attached two miraculous<br />

events: the vicar, who had been mute for some time, got his voice back and the<br />

peasant, who had been suffering from severe arthritis, suddenly healed. These<br />

events brought villagers to find a more suitable place for the picture, that is, the<br />

parish church of Arcagna.<br />

sanCtuary of the hoLy virGin of the GraCes (or saLus infirMoruM). The<br />

origins of this church are very ancient. It is placed on a small hill, a point of reference for many pilgrims.<br />

the Madonna and in 1682, the decision was made to build there a new church on commission of the<br />

Borromeo House, and so the present sanctuary was built. In 1681, a second spring had appeared next<br />

to the first one and this too bear miraculous features, so the decision to build a small chapel de<strong>di</strong>cated<br />

to the Holy Mary of Sick people was made.<br />
