A trip back to the Middle Ages

“Il Vicolo” is situated in the ancient part of Castiglion Fiorentino, a medieval village near Arezzo (Tuscany), at the second floor of an 17th century palace, inside the city walls. Its ancient and peculiar structure makes it a charming landmark for those who love life in a calm and silent environment. Castiglion Fiorentino maintains inside its walls several traces of its millenary history. Its natural beauty, folklore, delicious restaurants and wine bars where you can taste typical dishes and drink superb Tuscany wine, all this makes Castiglion Fiorentino the right place to spend your holidays. Easy to reach by train (the train station is only 5 minutes away), well connected to Rome and Florence, Castiglion Fiorentino is also a excellent starting point for one-day trips to beautiful towns in the surroundings (Cortona, Perugia, Pienza, Montalcino, Siena).

Castiglion Fiorentino

On the top of a hill (345 m) in the Tuscan Apennines, Castiglion Fiorentino offers wonderful views, westward of the Val di Chiana and eastward of silvery hills covered with olive trees. The charm of the old city centre with its paved streets, its rich and interesting history and folklore, that comprise several celebrations taking place all year round, reaching the peak on the third Sunday of June with the Palio dei Rioni horse race, its closeness to the Central Italy cities of art make Castiglion Fiorentino the ideal destination of your holidays and a perfect place to live or study. For more information, visit the official Castiglion Fiorentino website

Free time

The town offers many recreational activities. The Apennines give mountain lovers the opportunity to measure themselves against paths mapped out by the C.A.I. The presence of ruins near the city centre allows you to experience delightful excursions. Life within the medieval walls is very active. Several folklore celebrations, such as the medieval festival in the wonderful area of the Cassero Tower (last weekend of May and first weekend of June) and the Palio dei Rioni horse race (third Sunday of June) or religious festivities, such as the Procession held on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday of the Holy Week and the representation of the Passion of the Christ, held in a fascinating natural stage, take place all year round. There are also many sport facilities that meet the demand of the inhabitants, as well as the requirements of many tourists that visit the countryside and the town alleys, especially in spring and summer.

Surrounding areas

Its closeness to towns (such as Montepulciano, Pienza, San Gimignano, Montalcino) that made the hills near Siena well-known all over the world; the opportunity to reach quickly the most famous Central Italy cities (Rome, Florence, Perugia, Siena) thanks to the nearby motorways and railway station, make Castiglion Fiorentino the ideal place to spend a week-end or, why not, several weeks. Castiglion Fiorentino can be reached from Rome or Florence by the A1 Milan-Rome motorway: use the “Monte San Savino” or “Val di Chiana” exits.

Other Activities trekking, soccer, bowls
