Savigno and the truffle tradition: a journey through taste and territory

The soul of a country and the scent of its truffle

Among the rolling hills of the Bolognese Apennines, Savigno awakens every autumn wrapped in an unmistakable scent: that of the white truffle .
A small town that for decades has celebrated its most authentic soul through a long-awaited and beloved event—the Truffle Festival , where stories, expert hands, and ancient traditions intertwine.

Walking through its streets during the festival is a bit like taking a journey through time: the aromas of cooking, the voices of people, the golden October light caressing the houses, often with the exposed stone from which they were built.

The origins of a passion

The history of truffles in Savigno is one of respect and patience.
For generations, truffle hunters have roamed the woods with their faithful dogs, searching for the treasure hidden underground. An ancient practice, passed down like a family secret.
This dedication has made Savigno one of the capitals of the white truffle , where nature and gastronomy blend in perfect harmony.

The experience of taste

Tasting truffles in Savigno means discovering a world of nuances: fresh tagliatelle, fried eggs, warm crostini, and even the delicate notes of honey and truffle on a slice of cheese.
This is where the products of our land take centre stage – fresh truffles , truffle butter , truffle oil , royal sauce or artisanal compotes that accompany cheeses and meats with elegance and warmth.

An invitation to take a bit of that magic home, to recreate the Sagra experience in your own kitchen.

A country to experience all year round

Savigno is not just truffles: it is also paths, hills, inns, trattorias, shops and smiles .
From walks through chestnut groves to musical evenings, from markets to children's workshops, every season offers a reason to return.
But in autumn, when the air becomes cooler and the earth smells of the forest, Savigno becomes a place of the soul.
