Cori. Church of the Madonna della Consolazione

The rural Church of the Madonna della Consolazione of Cori is located near the cemetery, along the road to Artena, also called "Madonnella".

The building dates back to 1616 and in 1706 a particular prodigy occurred which is remembered every year on the night of August 14 and the day of the 15th with a particular procession.

Legend has it that Blessed Antonio Baldinucci showed the population an elm tree that lost leaves in quantity, and that according to him symbolize the descent into hell of the souls of sinners.

The phenomenon stopped only when the Blessed Baldinucci shouted: "Enough!".
