Medieval Celebrations – Brisighella

1-2-June 2024. Historical commemoration to revive the charm of the Middle Ages.

On Saturday June 1st and Sunday 2nd, 2024, in the fascinating Manfrediana Fortress, which watch over from the top the ancient village of Brisighella (Ravenna), takes place a weekend of historical commemoration to revive the charm of the Middle Ages.

A colorful crowd of aristocrats and knights, artisans and musicians, soldiers and farmers, bring back the old professions, the traditional customs, and the battle between the knights.

After sunset, the light of the torches suggestively illuminates weapons, armour, terracottas… The beating of the drums becomes impetuous, the duels are fiery clashes, up to the end of the day with music and dances.

A Medieval Osteria is also set up, with dishes and flavors cooked according to ancient recipes changed every day.

The Medieval Celebrations are also a good opportunity to visit Brisighella, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. In the historic center, Antica Via del Borgo is a covered elevated road dating back to the 12th century. It is also known as “Via degli Asini”  (Donkey street) as it was used as a shelter offered to the cart drivers’ animals.
