Our Lady of Mount Carmel, patroness of a city founded by the Branciforti
📅 Every year, on 16 August
Leonforte celebrates Our Lady of Mount Carmel on 16 August: her processional litter, together with that of Saint Simon Stock, is carried through the city founded by the Branciforti family, whose coat of arms depicts a lion with severed paws, tied to an ancient legend.
