On Sundays in October (and this year, exceptionally, also the first of November), Sant'Agata Feltria (Rimini) transforms into a magical place, where visitors can immerse themselves in a captivating and fragrant atmosphere. The town’s streets and squares host the National White Truffle Fair, an unmissable event for those who love authentic flavors and local traditions.
The undisputed star of the event, the white truffle, is celebrated through gourmet dishes made with this precious tuber, harvested from the surrounding forests, releasing intense aromas that evoke the purity of the land. Alongside the gastronomic delights, the Fair showcases artisanal excellence, with handcrafted items made from ceramics, wrought iron, wood, paper, and leather.
The event is further enriched by cultural initiatives and performances that enliven the days. Among the most anticipated moments are the "wine tour," featuring the finest local wineries, and the truffle dog competition, where spectators can witness the search for the prized tuber alongside their faithful companions.
A visit to Sant'Agata Feltria also offers the chance to admire the town's rich historical heritage, with fascinating landmarks such as the Angelo Mariani Theatre, Rocca Fregoso, the Convent of San Girolamo, and the artistic fountains.
