Edition 2025 — Rimella Bread Exchange

In 2025, Rimella once again celebrated the Bread Exchange on Ascension Day, Sunday, May 17, welcoming the inhabitants of Fobello. The traditional festival took place at the parish church of San Michele Arcangelo with the customary procession and the distribution of blessed bread, followed a week later by the mirror event in Fobello for Pentecost.

In 2025, the Ascension Feast with the Bread Exchange was held on Sunday, May 17, in Rimella. As every year, the celebration took place in the parish church of San Michele Arcangelo with the typical procession and the distribution of blessed bread to the inhabitants of Fobello, in the presence of the women and men of both communities in traditional Walser costumes. The ritual was then renewed in Fobello on Pentecost Sunday.
