285 years have passed since the Tabarchini settlers of Ligurian origins arrived on the island of San Pietro and founded Carloforte. To celebrate this important anniversary, the Municipality and the Pro Loco organized a series of initiatives that took place between Saturday and Sunday. From historical insights with a commemorative film to the concert by Trilli (a musical group that has its roots in ancient Genoa) on Saturday at the Cavallera cine-theater, to walks through the carruggi on Sunday morning with the solemn mass celebrated in the evening in the parish of San Carlo Borromeo.
In addition to the local authorities, Mauro Avvenente, councilor of the Municipality of Genoa, Rita Campobasso, councilor of the Municipality of Pegli, and Claudia Mura from the trade union of Calasetta took part in the celebrations.
«Thanks to all those who have committed themselves so that everything could be celebrated in a harmonious way - says Gianni Repetto, president of the Pro Loco - unity is strength and it is the philosophy followed by the Municipality and the Pro Loco of Carloforte, promoters of the event".
