Edition 2025 โ€” Madonna del Castello

In 2025, Invorio Superiore once again renewed its most cherished festival, gathering the Vergante community around the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Castello. Between solemn masses, the candlelight procession to the sanctuary on the Visconti castle ruins, and the traditional auction of offerings, the festival reaffirmed the strong bond between faith, tradition, and the historical memory of the Novara village.

The 2025 edition of the Madonna del Castello Festival renewed an ancient and deeply rooted devotion in Invorio Superiore, in the Province of Novara. As every year, the celebrations centered on Divine Mercy Sunday (Domenica in Albis), with the procession of the Madonna's statue toward the sanctuary that dominates the village from the hilltop.

The candlelight vigil, solemn hymns, and the characteristic incanto delle offerte marked the festival days in 2025 as well, in an atmosphere of participation that involved the town's families, local associations, and pilgrims from the Vergante, faithful to a tradition that intertwines spirituality and the memory of communities past.
