Patron saint festival In 314 days
Feast of the Madonna degli Orti
📅 Every year, on 25 August
On 25 August Murello, a municipality of 962 inhabitants in the province of Cuneo, celebrates its patroness the Madonna degli Orti.
Murello lies on the plain of the province of Cuneo, on the right bank of the Varaita; in Piedmontese it is Murel. The municipal gonfalon is a plain yellow cloth, and the houses gather around the square of the parish church.
That church, dedicated to St John the Baptist, is built entirely of bare brick: a pointed portal under a terracotta moulding, a bell tower rising above the front, with the clock halfway up and a spire between four pinnacles. The forecourt is paved in brick; beyond the wall, behind the apse, the low roofs of the village begin.
