The Chestnut Festival was born in the distant 1974. From the initiative of a small group of fellow villagers, it has become over the years a gathering point for the whole community of Teolo, involving children, young people, adults, and the elderly, with the aim of promoting local food and wine products and creating a moment of meeting and sharing for the community.
The chestnuts are roasted on a motorized rotating grill, the “ROSTIDORA,” capable of roasting about 50 kilograms of chestnuts.
The kitchen is open from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and reopens from 5:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. until the dishes run out. At the festival, you can also find: grilled meat, pasta and beans, sauce, the sweet "Schissotto," and good wine from the hills. There is the possibility to purchase raw chestnuts to take home and typical products from the Euganean Hills.
Takeout service from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
There will also be various other activities including the exhibition "Francesco Stefanini Komorbi" at MAC Dino Formaggio and a charity raffle to support the restoration of the Church of Teolo.
Family excursions: organized excursions are planned by Cammini Euganei.
