About Sagra Campestre

In the hamlet of Bardino Vecchio, in Tovo San Giacomo, the Sagra Campestre is the summer event that brings the community together in Piazza della Chiesa, in the shade of the characteristic Romanesque bell tower. Homemade ravioli, pork roasted over a fire, and tagliatelle with mushrooms are the stars of an authentic-tasting festival, organized by the parish. With decades of history, it is one of the most genuine sagre (village festivals) in the Savona hinterland, where good food meets the conviviality of village festivals.
