The festival dedicated to Cervia's white gold is back, with
cultural meetings, exhibitions, markets, shows and the re-enactment of the
ancient salt shed.
This is the most eagerly awaited event of the whole festival, when the salt
workers, aboard the "burchiella", the traditional salt boat, come
from the salt pans to the storage area, where the salt was originally stored.
Here the salt is offered as a wish for good luck and prosperity to all those
present.
The aim of the festival is to recall the origins of Cervia and dedicate a
celebration to the precious white gold, with convivial moments, guided tours,
exhibitions, shows and tastings of typical products offered in the many food
stands.
