Patron saint festival In 314 days
Feast of San Bartolomeo
📅 Every year, on 24 August
On 24 August Longano, a municipality of 697 inhabitants in the province of Isernia, celebrates its patron San Bartolomeo.
For six years Longano did not exist: in 1928 it was merged into Isernia, and only in 1934 did it become a comune of its own again. Even the railway station is not wholly its own: it stands seven kilometres from the village and is shared with Sant'Agapito.
At the top of the village is San Bartolomeo, an eleventh-century church to which two more naves were added in 1893; beside it stand a fountain and a medieval tower, and of the castle four stones are left. The village, 697 residents, looks down on the Lorda torrent from seven hundred metres, on the slopes of the Matese; a famous brigand came from these parts too, Salvatore Fiocca.
