Edition 2025 — Feast of Saint Guniforte

In 2025, Casatisma also celebrated its patron Saint Guniforte on the fourth Sunday of August, with celebrations in the 16th-century church dedicated to the saint and festivities for the small community of Oltrepò Pavese.

The patronal feast of Saint Guniforte in Casatisma was renewed in 2025, according to tradition, on the fourth Sunday of August. The village of Oltrepò Pavese gathered around the 16th-century church dedicated to the saint, the focal point of the religious celebrations, to honour a patron whose figure is rooted in the evocative medieval legend of the greyhound venerated by the people. Alongside moments of faith, there were also convivial events typical of village festivals, in a simple atmosphere tied to the agricultural roots of the territory.
