About Sant'Anna

On July 26th, Castelpizzuto, a small village at the foot of the Matese mountains in the province of Isernia, celebrates Saint Anne. A summer festival of devotion and community, with a mass and procession, that brings the warmth of summer and the return of emigrants to their home village into the streets.

Saint Anne in Castelpizzuto

On July 26th, the village of Castelpizzuto, in the province of Isernia, celebrates Saint Anne, the mother of the Virgin Mary and a figure deeply cherished in popular devotion. The festival falls in the heart of summer, when the small Matese municipality becomes populated again with the return of those who live far away.

A Summer and Community Celebration

The day includes a mass and a procession with the saint's effigy through the village streets. As with other religious festivals in the village, the Saint Anne celebration combines devotion with conviviality, in a community where the events of the liturgical calendar mark the most important moments of community life.

Castelpizzuto's Festivals

Saint Anne's festival is part of the cycle of celebrations that mark the year in Castelpizzuto, from the patron saint Agatha in February, to Saint Dominic Abbot in May, up to Saint Lucy in September. A heritage of traditions preserved by one of the least populated municipalities in Molise.
