In 1250 S.Rosa was exiled from Viterbo because she was in contrast with the city’s regents because of their moral and political malpractice. She was obliged to settle in Vitorchiano in a very modest house in the hamlet. While living in Vitorchiano, S.Rosa would have performed some miracles: she healed a blind girl touching her head and praying; she converted a heretic, “the sorceress”, proving her holiness: S. Rosa made the bells ring, summoned the population, jumped into the fire (previously lighted up) and came out completely unharmed.
