Description
The Fiera di San Martino, popularly known as the 'Fiera dei Becchi', is one of the most historic and beloved autumn festivals in the Romagna region. Held in the picturesque town of Santarcangelo di Romagna, the event coincides with the feast of Saint Martin. It is famous for its massive street market, traditional Romagnolo gastronomy—including piadina, sausage, and local wine—and the iconic 'horns of the cuckolds' hung under the Arch of Pope Clement XIV. The fair blends ancient agricultural traditions with a festive atmosphere, attracting visitors from across Italy to celebrate the end of the farming year.
