Festa della Bruna
The Madonna della Bruna, protectress of the city of Matera.
The party was established July 2, 1389 by Pope Urban VI.
His program is intense and spectacular. He dawn begins with the procession of the “pastors”, the ride in costume, the triumphal chariot, papier-mâché work created by local artists, are the hallmark of the festival, which culminates with a big crowd cheering assaulting the wagon and destroys it in about three minutes.
Fabulous fireworks, the night, illuminating the Matera Murgia and close the event.
