It is an ancient circular stone well, about ten meters deep, located a few hundred meters downstream from the Sanctuary that dominates the historic center of the town. According to legend, after the miraculous landing of the painting of the Madonna di Custonaci in the Buguto bay, following the shipwreck of a French ship, during the transport of the effigy of the Virgin from the bay to the small church on the hill of the town, at a certain point, the oxen that were pulling the cart, thirsty and exhausted from the effort, stopped and did not want to start again. Immediately - the legend says - a spring of water began to miraculously flow from the ground that watered the animals.
