Born into a Norman noble family descended from Charlemagne, Saint Rosalia was a devout religious person. She lived as a hermit in a cave on Mt. Pellegrino where she died alone. Her remains were discovered in 1624 by a hunter when Palermo was suffering from plague. The hunter had a vision telling him to parade her remains through the city, and by doing so the plague was lifted.
