Legend has it that it all began in front of the church, when the Saint, who lived in the 9th century, made a habit of handing out clothes and &#8220;sabots&#8221; \u2013 the traditional wooden clogs still on show at the fair today \u2013 to the poor.<\/p><p>Today the whole city centre takes part in the event, within and alongside the <strong>Roman walls of Aosta<\/strong>.<\/p><p>Every form of <strong>traditional Aosta Valley craftsmanship<\/strong> is represented: <strong>wood<\/strong> carving and decoration, work in <strong>soapstone<\/strong>, <strong>wrought iron<\/strong> and <strong>leather<\/strong>, <strong>weaving<\/strong> of cloth, <strong>woollen<\/strong> fabric made on old wooden looms, as well as <strong>lace<\/strong>, <strong>wicker<\/strong> objects, household items, wooden ladders, barrels\u2026<\/p><p>The <strong>Saint-Ours Fair<\/strong> is a celebration of the creativity and work of mountain people, a great popular event that showcases the character of the Aosta Valley identity.<\/p><p><strong>A visit to the Saint-Ours Fair is therefore an extraordinary and unforgettable experience<\/strong>, full of emotion. In fact, it is not so much the commercial side that draws the exhibitors to the fair, but rather the wish to leave the workshop and meet a public that appreciates their quality work and creativity, the fruit of centuries-old traditions. Likewise, visitors don&#8217;t come to the Fair just to find a bargain, a useful everyday item or a beautiful piece to decorate their home, but above all to &#8220;breathe in&#8221; a <strong>unique atmosphere<\/strong>.<\/p><p>During the fair you can also visit &#8220;<strong>l&#8217;Atelier<\/strong>&#8221; on the central Place Chanoux, where you can admire the artistic work of craftspeople who have made their art their profession.<\/p><p>The Saint-Ours Fair is also about <strong>music and folklore<\/strong>, with entertainment in the historic centre, as well as opportunities to <strong>taste Aosta Valley wines and specialities<\/strong> at the <strong>food and wine pavilion<\/strong> set up on Place Plouves.<\/p><p>The festivities reach their peak with the &#8220;<strong>Veill\u00e0<\/strong>&#8220;, the night-time vigil between the two days of the Fair, which lights up the streets and fills them with people until dawn.<\/p><p>Then, when you head back up to Cogne, you will find <strong>the winter calm of the mountains<\/strong>, where you can rest and recharge with seasonal activities such as lovely walks, snowshoe hikes, cross-country skiing and more&#8230;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9c3bd6f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"9c3bd6f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f3d453 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"1f3d453\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/wa.me\/393755471718?text=Hello,%20I%20would%20like%20more%20information%20about%20your%20Saint%20Ours%20Fair%20offer\" class=\"whatsapp-btn\" target=\"_blank\">\n  <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n    <path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M12.01 2C6.48 2 2 6.48 2 12.01C2 13.91 2.53 15.69 3.44 17.21L2 22L6.96 20.67C8.42 21.53 10.15 22.01 12.01 22.01C17.54 22.01 22.01 17.53 22.01 12.01C22.01 6.48 17.54 2 12.01 2ZM17.15 15.54C16.94 16.11 16.14 16.59 15.57 16.71C15.19 16.79 14.7 16.86 13.01 16.16C10.85 15.26 9.46 13.06 9.35 12.91C9.25 12.76 8.52 11.78 8.52 10.77C8.52 9.76 9.04 9.26 9.25 9.05C9.41 8.89 9.67 8.81 9.93 8.81C10.01 8.81 10.09 8.81 10.16 8.82C10.36 8.83 10.46 8.84 10.59 9.15C10.76 9.56 11.17 10.57 11.22 10.67C11.27 10.77 11.32 10.91 11.25 11.05C11.18 11.19 11.13 11.26 11.02 11.38L10.68 11.78C10.58 11.9 10.46 12.02 10.59 12.25C10.72 12.48 11.17 13.21 11.83 13.8C12.68 14.56 13.38 14.8 13.64 14.91C13.86 15 14 14.97 14.13 14.82C14.3 14.63 14.51 14.34 14.72 14.04C14.88 13.82 15.07 13.79 15.28 13.87C15.49 13.95 16.63 14.51 16.86 14.63C17.09 14.75 17.25 14.81 17.3 14.91C17.36 15.01 17.36 15.46 17.15 15.54Z\" fill=\"white\"\/>\n  <\/svg>\n  <span>More information<\/span>\n<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Take advantage of our offer to (re)discover the fabulous, legendary <strong>Saint-Ours Fair<\/strong>\u2026 a thousand-year-old craft fair (wood, iron, wicker&#8230;) held every year in the streets of Aosta&#8217;s historic centre on 30 and 31 January \u2013 since the year 1000.<\/p>\n<p>After the 1027th Saint-Ours Fair, make the most of your stay in Cogne (which you can extend if you wish) to enjoy the <strong>peace of the mountains<\/strong> with an invigorating winter activity or two (walks, snowshoe hikes, cross-country skiing, alpine skiing&#8230;), as well as the <strong>local food<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":15561,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[175],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-15544","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-notre-maison-package","first","outofstock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
