Spells, bees and goblins. The enigmatic Fortress of Montebello and an ancient water mill with millstones.


Our journey will begin amidst the rolling hills of the Marecchia Valley, to discover the suggestive Montebello Castle, also known as Azzurrina Castle. A unique place, suspended between history and legend, linked to the ancient family of the Counts Guidi di Bagno, who since the 15th century have made it a refined noble residence rich in charm and memory.

During the guided tour we will relive the famous legend of Azzurrina, the little girl who mysteriously disappeared in 1375, which still today makes this castle one of the most enigmatic and fascinating places in Italy. Between historic rooms and breathtaking views over the valley, we will enjoy an enthralling experience of history and fascination.

We will then move on to the characteristic Sapignoli Mill, an ancient mill immersed in the green of the Marecchia Valley and today a cultural space dedicated to rural memory and the traditions of the area. Here we will discover first-hand the rural life of yesteryear and the authentic identity of the valley.

The day will end with a pleasant moment of conviviality and farewell, accompanied by a final toast, to share together an unforgettable experience of history, legends and local traditions.
