The Sanctuary of the Madonna Incoronata, built in 1761, stands in a rural area linked to the historic wheat festival, one of the most characteristic rituals of the Fortore area. Every April, farmers and young people of the village dig furrows in the fields and carry the "verghe" (long poles decorated with wheat and flowers) in procession. In ancient times, this was followed by the release of a dove as a propitiatory gesture for the harvest. This tradition combines ancient agricultural symbols with Marian devotion, making the sanctuary a deeply rooted place for San Bartolomeo in Galdo.
