Originated as a 1900 Jubilee votive project, the Redentore festival has become the most awaited end-of-summer event in Barbagia. The combination of solemn religious rituals on Monte Ortobene with a grand secular folkloric pageant in Nuoro’s streets reflects the strong cultural pride of Nuoro and surrounding communities.
