Thirteen km from Baschi on the SS 448 motorway, caught between rocks and thick vegetation, is signed on the left hand side in the direction of Todi, read, "Centroescursionistico della Pasquarella" (excursion centre of Pasquaurella). There are three celebrations a year: the Epiphany, the Albis Sunday, and the last May Sunday. It was built in the XI century. Its name derives from "small Easter" or "first Easter of the year, namely Epiphany". There are different legends as to its origin: the most widespread say's that some Acqualoreto inhabitants having discovered an Icon of Saint Mary and having brought it to their Parish Church. The Saint Mary icon used to move back to its original place by itsself, so the Acqualoreto people had to bring it to their Church repeatedly.
In 1873 it was Don Giuseppe Bernardi who re-ignited the veneration for the Madonna della Pasquarella: in 1880 he had the holy building renovated. In his book on the history of the Virgin of Pasquarella, Don Bernardi talked about a miracle: Saint Mary and Christ's sweating. Between 1890 and 1900 this phenomenon took place more than once beside him and beside some members of the public. It always happened on the day of Epiphany, regardless of weather conditions and of the number of people being there.
