City of Venice - Tourism - Traditional events - The Feast-day of the Madonna della Salute - Histor
In the first decades of 17th century, from many points of view, Venice
was having some problems: economic (ruthless competition from the
French, English and Flemish merchants), political (alliance with France,
tension with Spain and even greater problems with the Papacy, resulting
in the Interdict) and military (the war against the Uscocchi pirates
for hegemony on the Adriatic and the war for the succession of Mantua).

City of Venice - Tourism - Traditional events - The Feast-day of the Madonna della Salute
The Festa della Salute is probably the least "touristy" of the Venetian
festivities and evokes strong religious feelings among the city's
inhabitants.
The holiday is, like the Redentore,
in memory of another bout of pestilence, which lasted for two years
from 1630-31, and the subsequent vow by the Doge to obtain the
intercession of the Virgin Mary.
Even today, thousands of
inhabitants visit the main altar of the imposing Salute Church on
November 21 to give thanks, and a strong symbolic tie remains between
the city and the Virgin Mary.
