FAI Summer Evenings | I'll tell you about the Castle: the peasants' life

Un appuntamento dedicato al Medioevo al Castello di Avio, per imparare giocando.
SUNDAY 29 SEPTEMBER 2024
Last chance of the year to take a real leap back in time, discovering the customs and traditions at the time of the Castelbarco family.
On Sunday 29 September, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., the Castle of Avio recounts the Middle Ages and the life of peasants throughout the centuries. An unforgettable journey into the past to discover the life that took place within the walls of an ancient castle.
A day dedicated to families and children with the setting up of a small medieval camp, various demonstrations, including loom weaving, and special medieval games for children.
At every hour there will be small animations by the Compagnia della Stella, which will tell stories and legends of the castle.
families can also enjoy the 'game trail': a treasure hunt within the castle walls, in which children become the real protagonists of the visit.
