Saint Oliva, patron of a town born around a Norman keep

📅 Every year, on 5 May

Pettineo celebrates Saint Oliva on 5 May, in the church dedicated to her; the town was founded by the Normans around the fortified keep of Migaido, which in the 15th century sheltered exiles from Negroponte fleeing the Ottoman conquest.
