Christmas in Castiglion Fiorentino

The Magic of Santa Claus' Tower and the Christmas Markets

Date 05/12/2025
Area Castiglion Fiorentino
Location Castiglion Fiorentino
In Castiglion Fiorentino, Christmas takes on a special atmosphere: this year Santa Claus has chosen the Torre del Cassero as his home, turning one of the most picturesque places in the village into a true holiday house. Every weekend in December, children will be able to climb up to the tower, meet him, listen to his stories and experience a moment of wonder in a setting rich with history and charm. The historic center will dress up for the holidays and become a great open-air theater. Traveling shows, music, workshops, artistic performances, and surprising characters will bring to life the streets decorated with lights and luminous installations, turning every stroll into a small Christmas journey. In Piazza del Municipio the Christmas Markets return, with handicrafts, local specialties and gift ideas alongside the village's shops, creating an ideal route for holiday shopping. The Christmas atmosphere is completed by the Living Nativity Scenea much-anticipated event that brings traditional scenes, historical costumes and dozens of extras back within the medieval walls, in an evocative route that thrills both adults and children.
