Artistic Altar of the Candles

Traditionally, for two days prior to the carnival, the Artistic Altar of the Candles (Altare Artistico dei Ceri) is set up every year in the hamlet of Frontale, municipality of Apiro.

The monstrance with the consecrated host is placed on an altar for Eucharistic adoration. The altar is specifically set up with hundreds of candles, representing a subject that changes every year.
