The patronage "SANTA MARIA ASSUNTA" (in German: "Assumption of Mary") of this cathedral (bishop's church) refers to one of the many memorial days or feast days in honor of the Mother of God Mary. It goes back to the feast of her bodily assumption into heaven, which the (Catholic) Church celebrates annually on August 15th. In the Christian Orthodox churches, the feast is called "Dormition of Mary". In many rural areas it used to be customary for the population to collect bundles of herbs on this special day and to bless them during the festive service; this custom is still practiced occasionally.
