Several miraculous events are associated with St. Charles Borromeo. During a famine in 1570, Borromeo was able to provide enough food for 3,000 people each day for three months. He also arranged for the care of more than 60,000 people during a devastating plague in the Alpine villages of his district. Some of the miracles attributed to him, and later depicted in art, include the healing of a woman from breast cancer and other illnesses.
