The Feast of Saint Agatha is celebrated on February 5th each year in honor of Saint Agatha, a Christian martyr from the 3rd century. She is the patron saint of breast cancer patients, bakers, and those suffering from fire-related injuries. The feast day is particularly significant in places like Sicily, where she is venerated with various religious ceremonies and processions. Traditionally, the celebration includes the preparation of special foods, such as Saint Agatha's bread, which is shaped like breasts and symbolizes her martyrdom. Communities often hold masses and parades, showcasing devotion and cultural heritage, while also raising awareness about health issues related to breast cancer.
