Festa del Pane (Sant'Antonio di Padova)

The 2025 edition of the Festa del Pane in Gildone (CB) confirmed the strong community participation in the celebrations of Saint Anthony of Padua. As tradition dictates, the artistic shapes of blessed bread, decorated with lilies, were carried in procession by the women of the village; the monacelli followed the tredicina and the procession wearing the saint's habit, while the infiorata adorned streets and squares. After Mass, the blessed bread was distributed to the faithful, in a festival that combines devotion, folk art, and conviviality.
