medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I just wrote, apropos St. Liberator venerated from Campania to Abruzzo:

Not quite. L. has a moveable feast (last Sunday in August) at his much rebuilt, originally early fifteenth-century church at Massa Lubrense (NA).
An Italian-language page on L.'s cult at Massa Lubrense is here:

A better view of the church:

Best again,
