Celebration of the rural work is also the festival of St. Zopito. The festival is born in 1711 when an ox who had been working in the fields, knelt down during the passage of the procession of people who were bringing the mortal remains of St. Zopito to Loreto Aprutino. The festival is celebrated every year on Whit Monday in line with the harvesting of crops in the fields to attract the favor of the Saint Zopito on the fertility of the earth. The ox leads a procession through the village and repeats his kneeling down in front of the church of Saint Pietro. #loretoaprutino #abruzzo #italianfestival

Nel corso dei secoli molti sono stati gli asceti ed eremiti che in questi luoghi conducevano una vita fatta di preghiera, meditazione e solitudine. Seguiremo le loro tracce percorrendo sentieri immersi nel silenzio e nella bellezza della natura, custodi di rari luoghi dove rivive la pace di coloro che li abitarono. http://www.bellandare.it/p/sentiero_spirito_trekking_eremi_sulla_majella/
