Holy Well at Rezare is a sacred spring site located in Cornwall, England, with origins likely extending into the medieval period when such wells became foci for Christian devotion and pilgrimage. The well is situated within a landscape of considerable archaeological and spiritual significance, reflecting the broader tradition of holy wells that characterised Cornwall and the broader Celtic regions during the medieval era. As with many Cornish holy wells, the site may have incorporated earlier pre-Christian sacred associations, though the documented religious use belongs primarily to the Christian period. The physical remains and setting preserve evidence of its function as a pilgrimage destination and place of healing veneration within the local community.
