The third edition of the Sagra del Pane Nero di Castelvetrano enlivens the historic center on October 17-18, 2026. The protagonist is bread made from wholemeal tumminia wheat flour, an ancient Sicilian variety that gives the product a dark color, a crunchy crust, and a rustic, intense flavor tied to the area's farming tradition. For two days, tasting stands let you sample black bread on its own or paired with oil, tomato, cheeses, and other local specialties. There are also sessions on traditional bread-making and meetings dedicated to the gastronomic culture of bread. An event that combines taste, memory, and the promotion of a symbol of Castelvetrano's identity, offering visitors and residents the chance to rediscover ancient techniques and the deep bond between the community and this food.
