Patron saint festival In 303 days
Feast of San Rocco
📅 Every year, on 16 August
On 16 August Molino dei Torti, a municipality of 653 inhabitants in the province of Alessandria, celebrates its patron San Rocco.
Molino dei Torti lies in the flat Tortona country and, together with neighbouring Isola Sant'Antonio, holds an odd record: it is the lowest-lying comune in Piedmont. Between 1928 and 1946 it had no separate existence, merged with Alzano Scrivia into a single comune called Molino-Alzano. Garlic is still its typical crop.
At the centre of the village the parish church of Santa Maria delle Grazie closes a gravel forecourt lined with stone posts: red brick façade framed by pale pilasters, a mosaic under the arch and two stone angels on the slopes of the pediment, the bell tower rising just behind the roof.
