About Saint Martin's Festival
Saint Martin, Patron Saint of Treviso Bresciano
The Saint Martin's Festival is the patronal feast of Treviso Bresciano, a municipality in Valle Sabbia in the province of Brescia. The town celebrates November 11th in honor of Saint Martin of Tours, the saintly bishop to whom the parish church is dedicated and with whom numerous folk traditions spread throughout Italy are associated.
Between Faith and Autumn Traditions
The heart of the day is the solemn mass in honor of the patron saint. Around the religious celebration, the typical traditions of Saint Martin's Day come together, a moment that peasant culture considers almost an agricultural New Year's Eve: toasting with the new wine, enjoying chestnuts, and, by tradition, families in Treviso Bresciano celebrate with a spit-roasted meat lunch, as it is the peak of the hunting season.
A Village in Valle Sabbia
The festival is also an opportunity to discover Treviso Bresciano, a village nestled in the nature of Valle Sabbia, far from mass tourist circuits. Here, the patronal feast retains the authentic character of a community celebration, experienced by the parish and the town's inhabitants.
