Durante il Medioevo fu un importante mercatale sviluppatosi lungo la strada per il Valdarno. I numerosi castelli e pievi nei dintorni sono testimonianza di un’intensa e prospera attività agricola e commerciale. Tra i castelli, tutti di impianto medievale, sono particolarmente interessanti quello di Vertine, quello di Meleto con due imponenti torri angolari rotonde, quello di Barbischio e soprattutto il castello di Brolio. Sulle mura e i bastioni che lo circondano corre un camminamento di ronda da cui si gode un bellissimo panorama del Chianti e della campagna senese. Il castello, completamente distrutto nel 1478, fu ricostruito nel secolo scorso per volere di Bettino Ricasoli.

 

A meno di 1 Km. da Gaiole è da visitare la bella pieve romanica di Spaltenna mentre, sulla strada per il Valdarno, immersa nel verde di abeti secolari, merita una sosta la Badia a Coltibuono. Gran parte dell’imponente complesso abbaziale costruito dai monaci vallombrosani nell’XI sec. è oggi di proprietà privata; ... Read More...

Florence's Main Festivals and Happenings

 

Scoppio del carro (Explosion of the Cart)- Easter Sunday- Piazza del Duomo
It is the first major folk festival of the year. Its origins lie with Pazzino de' Pazzi, leader of the Florentine contingent on the First Crusade. His descendants continued to manage the festival until the Pazzi conspiracy of 1478, which of course lost them the office. Since then, the city authorities have taken care of business.

 

A cartload of fireworks is hauled by six white oxen from Porta a Prato to the Duomo. Here, the whole lot is set off by a "dove" that whizzes down a wire from the high altar.
Festa del Grillo (Festival of the Cricket) -Ascension Sunday- Cascine Park
This festival is a typical Florentine tradition deriving from pagan festivities.

Still today, in amongst the stalls and the picnickers you will find people selling wooden cages containing crickets, which are then released onto the grass - a ritual that harks back to the days when men placed a cricket on the door of their lovers to ... Read More...
