Feast of the Assumption
Ferragosto of faith in the upper Molise village
About Assumption in Pettoranello
The Assumption in the Heart of August
In Pettoranello del Molise, a village in the province of Isernia, the Feast of the Assumption is celebrated on August 15th, the day of the Assumption of Mary. It is one of the central events of the Pettoranello summer, held in Piazza Guglielmo Marconi, the heart of the village.
Faith and Summer Festival
The recurrence combines the religious dimension — Marian celebrations and procession — with the village's summer festival, during the period when Pettoranello welcomes back emigrants and many people from Molise around the world who are connected to the village. Ferragosto thus becomes an occasion for intergenerational encounters, blending devotion, music, and piazza conviviality.
A Community Reunited
Along with the winter festival of the patron saint San Sebastiano, the mid-summer Assumption marks the calendar of Pettoranello del Molise's most cherished events. It is a time when the small upper Molise village shows its most vibrant and welcoming side.
