Giuliano di Roma. Festival of Saint Blaise

Saint Blaise, the protector of the throat, is celebrated in Giuliano di Roma on February 3.

On this occasion, the oil of Saint Blaise is blessed in the church, with which the priest anoints the throat of the faithful with the help of a candle and reciting the phrase "the intercession of San Biagio protects you from sore throats and from any other bad".
