📣 Traveler notes

Italy is a historically significant destination, known as the birthplace of Western culture, the site of the Roman Empire, and the Renaissance. It features numerous UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

  • New Year's Day (January 1)
  • Epiphany (January 6)
  • Easter and Easter Monday (March or April)
  • Liberation Day (April 25)
  • When dining, be aware that Italian meal times are often leisurely. Start by greeting staff with 'buongiorno' (day) or 'buonasera' (evening). Note that cappuccino is typically consumed only at breakfast; an alternative milky coffee for later is a macchiato. Criticizing food is considered impolite. When dining formally, wait to be seated, though this may not be required at casual cafes.

About this holiday

St. Saturninus commemorates Benedict of Cagliari, a Benedictine Bishop of Dolia, Sardinia, who served at the abbey of St. Saturninus in 1107.
