Festa Dei Gigli In Nola
NOLA, ITALY - JUNE 27: Men carry a 25-metre tall wood and papier-mache statue called 'giglio' during the annual Festa dei Gigli ('The Lily Festival') on June 27, 2016 in Nola, Italy. When St. Paolini, (355- 431 AD) the bishop of Nola, returned in a boat after freeing the town's men from captivity at the hands of the Saracens, he was welcomed by the population with lilies ('gigli'). To carry the Gigli, 128 men, called 'paranza,' shoulder one another and walk slowly through the town. In 2014 the famous festival became a UNESCO World Heritage site.
