Holy Wells

Holy wells are natural or man-made springs or water sources with religious significance, often believed to possess healing powers or spiritual blessings. Traditionally found across various cultures, especially in Europe, they are sometimes associated with saints, angels, or local legends. Visitors often come to these wells to seek cures, protection, or to perform rituals. Many wells have been preserved as historical or sacred sites, and their waters are sometimes still used in pilgrimages or personal acts of faith, blending local folklore with religious devotion.
