Festa Patronale del Martirio di San Giovanni Battista a Montevecchia

In 2025, Montevecchia also celebrated the Martyrdom of Saint John the Baptist, its patron saint, on August 29th. The community gathered for the solemn Mass in the parish church dedicated to the saint, halfway up the hills of the Curone Park.

The traditional rite of the beacon was not missed, with the burning of the cotton-covered balloon on the churchyard, a symbolic gesture recalling the saint's martyrdom as a life given entirely, love, and the light of faith. A tradition that continues to unite faith and identity for the village in Brianza.
