About Feast of Saint Margaret

Every year, around July 20th, the Capoluogo hamlet of Charvensod celebrates its patronal feast in honor of Saint Margaret. It is one of the traditional events of the small municipality overlooking the city of Aosta, organized by the Pro Loco of Charvensod. A village festival that intertwines the religious and community aspects, featuring a gathering of inhabitants, conviviality, and Aosta Valley traditions, in the ancient heart of the village.

The patron saint of the capital hamlet

The Feast of Saint Margaret is the patronal feast of the Capoluogo hamlet (the chef-lieu) of Charvensod, a small municipality in the Province of Aosta that stretches across the sunny slopes south of the regional capital. It is traditionally held on July 20th, the day dedicated to Saint Margaret.

A village tradition

Like many Aosta Valley patronal feasts, it is an event that combines the religious dimension — the mass in honor of the saint — with the community aspect, featuring a gathering of inhabitants, moments of conviviality, and entertainment organized by the Pro Loco of Charvensod. The association, established in 2000 on the initiative of the municipal administration, manages the main events of the village and is always open to those who wish to lend a hand.

Charvensod and its festivals

Charvensod preserves its hamlet festivals: in addition to the one in Capoluogo for Saint Margaret, the municipality also celebrates Saint Anne in Félinaz at the end of July. These are occasions when the village comes together around its roots, in an alpine setting just a few minutes from the center of Aosta and the cable car leading to Pila.
