Montedoro celebrates Our Lady of the Rosary on the first Sunday of October, in the church in the historic centre; the town, once a mining centre, today preserves the memory of this vocation in the Angelo Petix Sulfur Mine Museum.

The patron of Montedoro is Our Lady of the Rosary, celebrated on the first Sunday of October, in a church dedicated to her in the town's historic centre.

Montedoro was once a mining centre tied to sulfur extraction, an activity that deeply marked the town's history and identity: this vocation is today recalled by the Angelo Petix Sulfur Mine Museum, part of a wider educational-scientific park in the town, standing not far from the local planetarium.
