About Castagnata Travaino
Autumn in celebration
When autumn arrives in Caronno Varesino - a municipality in the province of Varese - the Castagnata del Circolo Travaino returns, one of the most cherished events of the season. Organized by the Circolo Cooperativa Familiare Travaino at the Oratory on Via Garibaldi, the festival renews a popular tradition widespread throughout Northern Italy: the castagnata, which celebrates the arrival of berries and autumn flavours.
Roasted chestnuts and conviviality
The absolute stars are the chestnuts, served as roasted chestnuts alongside traditional dishes, in a festive atmosphere that unites generations. The castagnata has always been an occasion for community gathering, a simple and genuine moment that tells of the town's connection to its peasant roots and the rhythm of the seasons.
A tradition of the Circolo Travaino
The organization is entrusted to the Circolo Travaino, an associative reality rooted in the social fabric of Caronno Varesino. As with the town's other events, the festival arises from the voluntary commitment of its members, testifying to the vitality of associations in the small municipalities of the Varesotto region.
