Edition 2025 — Our Lady of Piety
On the first weekend of July 2025, Terranova di Pollino celebrated the Festival of Our Lady of Piety with the traditional procession of the cinti, amidst popular music and devotion, in the heart of the Pollino National Park.
In 2025 too, the community of Terranova di Pollino gathered on the first weekend of July around the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Piety. The procession of the cinti, with women carrying compositions of wheat ears and candles on their heads, marked the festivities to the rhythm of bagpipes, accordions, and tambourines, confirming the vitality of one of the most characteristic religious traditions on the Lucanian side of the Pollino.
