Sant' Agrippina di Mineo was a beautiful blond princess who was unmercifully tortured to death by the emperor of Rome, Emperor Valerian in 256 AD. After her death, her body was taken from Rome to Mineo, Sicily by three holy women; Bassa, Paula, and Agatonica.
Sant' Agrippina is the patron saint of thunderstorms, leprosy and evil spirit. Her feast day is celebrated on the first weekend in August.
