20th Edition – 20 and 27/08/2017

The 20th edition of Volterra A.D. 1398 has two unforgettable settings: the town centre, with its imposing palazzi and squares, and the Archaeological Park, over which the Medici Fortress reigns. The high point of the programme is the “Festival Day of A.D 1398”, on Sundays 20th and 27th of August, from morning to nightfall.
On this exceptional days a medieval town comes back to life with its performances, events, tradesmen, artisans, musicians, jugglers, populace and nobles.
A unique occasion to experience, as if by magic, medieval times in one of the most beautiful cities in Tuscany.
The town centre comes to life with a never ending past, rich in colourful performances and music, while in the archaeological park the countryside comes back to life. The village with its peasant farmers, shepherds, the monastery and monks, the courtyard animals and the military amps welcome the visitors who will enjoy performances with arms and falconry.

A special area will be dedicated to children.
