The Bonfire Of San Corrado
The bonfire of San Corrado in Molfetta, Italy, is lit on February 9, 2026, and celebrates the patron saint by commemorating the arrival of his relics in the 14th century. Legend has it that the people of Molfetta, arriving at night with the remains, find the gates closed and warm themselves with a large fire, cooking broad beans and chickpeas. They represent warmth, faith, and popular tradition. (Photo by Davide Pischettola/NurPhoto)
