An authentic journey into the farming heart of Monteforte d'Alpone, where stories of yesterday come to life through the tools of the past, family memories, and the local dialect!
The experience begins in the halls of the Palazzo Vescovile, with a visit to the evocative Exhibition of Ancient Trades: a dive into the "know-how" of artisans and farmers that has nourished our communities and that many emigrants have carried with them into the world. Among vintage tools and tales, we will rediscover the value of manual labor and the roots of courtly life.
From here we will walk towards the beautiful hills of Soave DOC along the itinerary of the Ten Chapels, witnesses to deep popular devotion and the unbreakable bond between man, the land, and faith.
Along the entire route, expert local guides will accompany you with anecdotes, humor, and the colors of the local speech, inviting participants to share memories, family sayings, and life stories in a warm atmosphere of conviviality.
