Religious festivals

Marche has maintained unchanged over time some events related to particular religious holidays. Many such are the Live nativity scenes, most notably that of Genga, in the scenic Frasassi Gorge and Precicchie  Castle (Municipality of Fabriano), both not far from Genga.

The moments of Passion are evoked in The Turba, an ancient and charming evocation of the scenes of the Passion on Good Friday, dating back to 1260, which takes place in Cantiano; other striking events are held in Mogliano, in Villa Musone of Loreto, in Porto Sant'Elpidio, Monteprandone, Monte San Pietrangeli, Pioraco, Recanati, Ripatransone.

The day of Corpus Christi is an appointment with floral decorations like in Castelraimondo, Corridonia, Montefiore dell' Aso, Monterubbiano, Ortezzano, Servigliano. Striking is in Loreto the night of 9th December, the feast which is celebrated to commemorate the Coming of the Holy House, with all the hills around which are illuminated  by fires.
