The Feast of Sant’Efisio - A Living Heritage

In 2014 the Municipality of Cagliari has started the procedure to inscribe the Rite of fulfillment of the Vow and the Feast of Sant'Efisio in the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, according to the criteria established by the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage and in collaboration with the Archdiocese, the Confraternity and the Municipalities of Pula, Villa San Pietro, Capoterra and Sarroch.

The Municipal Administration is strongly committed to initiatives to safeguard all cultural heritage, but they must be especially citizens and participants in the Feast of Sant'Efisio to contribute actively and concretely to the preservation of cultural assets.

For this reason we ask you to support the candidacy of the Rite of the fulfillment of the Vow and the Feast of Sant'Efisio to the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, through all the appropriate actions of transmission and protection.

As an integration to the work of safeguarding, an official page dedicated to the Feast has been created on Facebook to publish all the news about religious rites, history and curiosities about the Feast: https://www.facebook.com/santefisio

Citizens and associations can also support the nomination and send prompts to: [email protected]
