On 5th and 6th July, the historic center of Cerreto Guidi will go back in time to July 1576, in a festive atmosphere for the arrival of the beloved Isabella, Cosimo I's favorite daughter, to join her husband in the Medici villa.
 
Within the walls of the sixteenth-century village you will meet nobles and commoners, ancient knights and scenes of daily life, ancient trades, historical games, Renaissance music and dances, falconers, feats of swords and crossbows, games of fire and flags.
 
For two days the atmosphere will warm up with shows of all kinds until the news of Isabella's mysterious death, which took place in Cerreto Guidi on 16th July 1576; you will hear "the truth" whispered between popular stories and legends handed down for centuries, up to the final show in the magnificent scenery of the Medici Bridges to celebrate the life of the "star" of Casa Medici.
