Triora's 21st century beauty shadows a gruesome Middle Ages renown, for Triora was the site of the last witch trials held in Italy, during the Renaissance. As such it has been selected as the location of a series of folklore- and horror-themed events and festivals in recent years. It has three annual festivals: a summer witchcraft festival, in August; and two autumn celebrations: the mushroom festival in September; and Halloween, at the end of October. Then there are the many smaller fairs of the year, including the Christmas bonfire on 24 December; St. John of the Meadows, the local patron saint's day, on 23 June; a chestnut fair in October; an All Souls Day fair, at the start of November; and a series of Easter parades, before, during and after Holy Week, each Spring. Triora borders the following municipalities: Briga Alta, Castelvittorio, La Brigue (France), Mendatica, Molini di Triora, Montegrosso Pian Latte, Pigna and Saorge (France). ==Demographic evolution== Colors= id:lightgrey value:gray(0.9) id:darkgrey value:gray(0.8) id:sfondo value:rgb(1,1,1) id:barra value:rgb(0.6,0.7,0.8) ImageSize = width:455 height:303 PlotArea = left:50 bottom:50 top:30 right:30 DateFormat = x.y Period = from:0 till:4000 TimeAxis = orientation:vertical AlignBars = justify ScaleMajor = gridcolor:darkgrey increment:1000 start:0 ScaleMinor = gridcolor:lightgrey increment:200 start:0 BackgroundColors = canvas:sfondo BarData= bar:1861 text:1861 bar:1871 text:1871 bar:1881 text:1881 bar:1901 text:1901 bar:1911 text:1911 bar:1921 text:1921 bar:1931 text:1931 bar:1936 text:1936 bar:1951 text:1951 bar:1961 text:1961 bar:1971 text:1971 bar:1981 text:1981 bar:1991 text:1991 bar:2001 text:2001 PlotData= color:barra width:20 align:left bar:1861 from: 0 till:3306 bar:1871 from: 0 till:3295 bar:1881 from: 0 till:3117 bar:1901 from: 0 till:2860 bar:1911 from: 0 till:2655 bar:1921 from: 0 till:2319 bar:1931 from: 0 till:1875 bar:1936 from: 0 till:1757 bar:1951 from: 0 till:1319 bar:1961 from: 0 till:984 bar:1971 from: 0 till:713 bar:1981 from: 0 till:507 bar:1991 from: 0 till:418 bar:2001 from: 0 till:408 PlotData= bar:1861 at:3306 fontsize:XS text: 3306 shift:(-8,5) bar:1871 at:3295 fontsize:XS text: 3295 shift:(-8,5) bar:1881 at:3117 fontsize:XS text: 3117 shift:(-8,5) bar:1901 at:2860 fontsize:XS text: 2860 shift:(-8,5) bar:1911 at:2655 fontsize:XS text: 2655 shift:(-8,5) bar:1921 at:2319 fontsize:XS text: 2319 shift:(-8,5) bar:1931 at:1875 fontsize:XS text: 1875 shift:(-8,5) bar:1936 at:1757 fontsize:XS text: 1757 shift:(-8,5) bar:1951 at:1319 fontsize:XS text: 1319 shift:(-8,5) bar:1961 at:984 fontsize:XS text: 984 shift:(-8,5) bar:1971 at:713 fontsize:XS text: 713 shift:(-8,5) bar:1981 at:507 fontsize:XS text: 507 shift:(-8,5) bar:1991 at:418 fontsize:XS text: 418 shift:(-8,5) bar:2001 at:408 fontsize:XS text: 408 shift:(-8,5) TextData= fontsize:S pos:(20,20) text:Data from ISTAT 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Triora」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
