    The sanctuary of Saints Medici and Martyrs Cosmas and Damiano is located on a small hill at the foot of Monte Leuci in Pontecorvo.

    The first historical news is a long-term lease in August of 955 preserved in the archive of the abbey of Montecassino.

    In this document it is clear that before one thousand, in Pontecorvo there only existed a destroyed church dedicated to St. Cosmas and and some ancient devotion to the Saints Doctors.
