Ancient crafts and popular tradition in the village of Montecchio
About Saint Bernard Fair
The patron saint's festival of Montecchio
The Saint Bernard Fair is one of the traditional events in Montecchio, a village in the province of Terni. Linked to the figure of the saint, the fair combines popular devotion and the culture of artisan work, bringing back to life the gestures and knowledge of the past.
Re-enactment of ancient crafts
The heart of the event is the re-enactment of ancient crafts: through the streets of the historic center, artisans from different parts of Italy — particularly basket weavers — demonstrate live manual work techniques, from basketry to other crafts of the agricultural and artisan tradition.
A community festival
Organized with the involvement of the Pro Loco and the Montecchio community, the Saint Bernard Fair is an opportunity to rediscover the village's roots and its heritage of popular traditions, in a festive atmosphere that unites residents and visitors.
