The Capunsei of Solferino: A Journey Through the Flavors of Mantua

The culinary heritage of the Upper Mantua region finds its purest expression in Solferino. During the Great Capunsèl Festival, taking place from July 3rd to July 5th, 2026, the village honors its most iconic dish: the capunsèl. This traditional bread dumpling, officially recognized as a regional gastronomic specialty of Lombardy, tells an ancient story where the lines between sweet and savory blur, thanks to the inclusion of crushed amaretto cookies that lend the dish a distinctive, sophisticated profile.

Attending this event is an opportunity to experience authentic local hospitality, where food serves as a medium for historical storytelling. Beyond the tasting of these unique dumplings, visitors can enjoy a curated selection of local products, including regional cheeses and traditional grilled meats. Accompanied by live music and entertainment, the festival invites guests to savor the essence of the Mantuan terroir in a refined and welcoming atmosphere.
