Patron saint festival In 191 days
Feast of Saint George
📅 Every year, on 23 April
On 23 April Brozolo, a municipality of 471 inhabitants in the province of Turin, celebrates its patron Saint George.
Brozolo has no single centre: hills almost everywhere, at the edge of the Monferrato, the houses split among dozens of hamlets, the largest Grisoglio. The name probably comes from Broxulus, small wood or scrubland; other sources trace it to the Germanic Brossa. Its arms repeat the emblems of the Radicati counts: the crowned eagle and the uprooted chestnut, under the motto Perseveranter.
In 1927 Fascist policy merged Brusasco, Cavagnolo, Marcorengo and Brozolo into one comune; Brozolo broke away in 1948, Cavagnolo followed in 1957, Marcorengo stayed a hamlet of Brusasco. The town hall stands at Grisoglio: a three-storey palazzo banded in brick and plaster, a pediment over the central bay, two openwork iron balconies.
