Macchiagodena, Town of Truffles

Macchiagodena, a municipality in the province of Isernia in upper Molise, is one of the reference centers for Molisan summer black truffle. The village is part of the National Association of Truffle Towns and has made this precious undergrowth product a symbol of its gastronomic and territorial identity.

The summer black truffle festival

In August, the Molisan Summer Black Truffle Festival takes place, organized by the Tuber Macchiagodenese Consortium together with the Municipality.
