On 1-2 December 2018, Siena will return to its origins for a weekend, bringing medieval customs and traditions back to life with the historical re-enactment of the “mercato grande” – the Tuscan city’s main marketplace at the time.

Immersed in this Medieval atmosphere, Siena’s excellent culture, food and wine and craftsmanship will take center stage, drawing inspiration from products of the past and expressing the local territory in all of its unique facets. The event will center around Piazza del Campo, with 150 booths laid out according to the same rules set forth by authorities in the 14th century, as recorded in the 1309 Costituto Senese (the first constitution to regulate daily urban life in a vernacular language).
