A privilege to be present at the banquet as the cloister can not contain more than 150 seats.

Greeted by music and singing guests take place followed by the Sir and Dame hosts, announced by the trumpets and roll of drums.
But which foods were offered in the noble houses of the Middle Ages? They were foods that taste sweet and sour and spicy, typical of the Middle Ages.

More and more tourists choose to Castiglion Fiorentino holidays. In 2013 50.762 visitors.

More and more tourists choose to Castiglion Fiorentino holidays. In 2013 50.762 visitors.

Calendario

50 762 presences in 2013 in Castiglion Fiorentino. A double-digit increase, + 27.44% on the previous year. This is the most striking and important comes from the tourist office in the Province of Arezzo. Last year, 3,813 foreign tourists more than in 2012 have chosen the country of the Torre del Cassero  as an ideal place to spend their holidays. Compared to 2012 we are talking about a change in a more 38.18. Given conflicting, however, for Italian travelers. While arrivals decreased slightly, -3.24%, on the other hand increase attendance +4.58%.

It was a 2013 positive, then, for the accommodation of the country of the Torre del Cassero. Certainly the data on tourist flows may be very different if the provincial report could also add streams of facilities not surveyed. But “querelle” apart, once again demonstrates that tourism is an important driver for the local economy. “We’re happy – says the Association of Tour Operators of Castiglion Fiorentino – but this result is certainly not random. For years, the tourist facilities are working tirelessly in the promotion of the territory. The tourist who chooses Castiglion Fiorentino is in search of genuine emotions. He wants to live a unique and unforgettable holiday.”

Preserving the richness of art history but also environment should be a prerogative of every public institution. As should be the prerogative each government to support the entire sector of small and medium-sized enterprises also agriculture. It is, therefore, necessary and vital to create the right conditions for all categories on both economic and social work for the creation of a virtuous system for the good of the whole territory. We must not, in fact, forget that the first tour operators are the inhabitants themselves of Castiglion Fiorentino. And only with a quality offer, you can continue the long and somewhat difficult process that ensures the development of the local economy.
