Starting with the Grand Countess, who ruled over half of Italy from these very hills, we will explore a Middle Ages steeped in tales that seem to have sprung from the imagination of Walt Disney.

This is a journey through what our city offers today and what it once offered, reconstructing the Cathedral as it was in the past through rarely seen perspectives and exploring palaces where medieval, Spanish, French, and even fantastical influences intertwine.

We will conclude the tour with a visit to some of the city's oldest buildings.

This itinerary reveals hidden details and unexpected perspectives that can transform what we think we know.

Because sometimes, the Middle Ages are not what we imagine them to be… and that is precisely what makes them so fascinating.
