Saint John the Baptist, patron remembered by a goose-shaped whistle
📅 Every year, on 24 June, with the Fiera di San Giovanni in Piazza del Popolo
Cesena celebrates Saint John the Baptist on 24 June with the historic Fiera di San Giovanni in Piazza del Popolo; for the occasion, the typical fischietto di San Giovanni is still made today, a sweet shaped like a goose or a rooster tied precisely to this patronal feast.
