Biretta

A biretta is a hat that some important people wear to show that they are special. It has three parts that make it look like a square on top of their head! It also has a little tassel on it that hangs down the back.

The biretta is a special hat that is sometimes worn by people called clergy, or priests, who work at churches. It is often worn during important church services, kind of like how you wear your best clothes to church on special days.

When someone becomes a priest, they often get a biretta to show that they are now an important person in church. They might wear it when they are reading from a special book or giving a really important blessing.

The biretta has been around for a long time, since a long time ago when people wore different kinds of hats to show that they were important or in charge. Nowadays, some people still wear a biretta to show that they are special and have an important job in the church!
