In Saturnia it is in fact traditional to organise, on New Year’s Eve, among markets, stalls and live music, the inevitable “Focarazza”, a pile of wood in the central square “Piazza Vittorio Veneto” which is set on fire during the evening. We then all watch together the spectacle of the flames rising towards the sky, dancing and celebrating the new year.

The Focarazza ritual in Saturnia has very ancient origins that come from the famous “Saturniali” during which parties, banquets and celebrations were dedicated to the god Saturn, god of abundance to ensure a generous harvest the following year.

Even today these rites are very suggestive and in particular in Saturnia, where water and fire come together in a thousand-year-old tradition…
