The four quarters into which Arezzo is divided (Porta Sant\u2019Andrea, Porta Crucifera, Porta San Lorentino and Porta Santo Spirito) compete for the grand prize - the golden lance, a true work of art dedicated each edition to illustrious Aretine writers, painters and personages. Each golden lance is a unique piece that the quarters conserve in their headquarters, which can be visited all year long.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The joust takes place on a sloping track in the Piazza Grande, which assumes its medieval appearance. Two riders per quarter challenge the Saracen dummy with their lance in two charges each. The victory goes to the quarter totalling the most points gained by striking the target board on the Saracen\u2019s shield.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The week leading up to the Saracen Joust is rich in events. The headquarters of the four quarters propose new programs each year, with evenings of music and cabaret that culminate in the propitiatory dinner on the eve of the joust - a feast aimed at favouring the victory of their riders, open to all residents and tourists.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_button_module_wrapper et_pb_button_4_wrapper\"><a class=\"et_pb_button_4 et_pb_button et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\" href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/searchresults.en.html?city=-110636&#038;aid=354954&#038;no_rooms=1&#038;group_adults=1\" target=\"_blank\">Sleep in Arezzo<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row_6 et_pb_row et_block_row\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_11 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_16 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h3 class=\"m_title imgboxes-title\"><span style=\"color: #333300;\">Palio delle Barche \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"m_title imgboxes-title\"><span style=\"color: #808000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_image_5 et_pb_image et_pb_has_overlay et_animated et_pb_module et_block_module\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.paliodellebarche.it\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cortonamia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/palio-delle-barche-passignano.jpg\" width=\"530\" height=\"280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cortonamia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/palio-delle-barche-passignano.jpg 530w, https:\/\/www.cortonamia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/palio-delle-barche-passignano-300x158.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" class=\"wp-image-687\" \/><span class=\"et_overlay\"><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_video_3 et_pb_video et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_video_box\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Palio delle Barche - Passignano sul Trasimeno\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SetuCT42s00?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_text_17 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h3 class=\"m_title imgboxes-title\"><span style=\"color: #808000;\">End of July<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"m_title imgboxes-title\"><span style=\"color: #808000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_column_12 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_divider_6 et_pb_divider_hidden et_pb_space et_pb_divider_position_top et_pb_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_divider_internal\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_text_18 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module preset--module--divi-text--default\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><div class=\"eluideb645433 col-sm-6 col-sm-6 zn_sortable_content zn_content \" data-droplevel=\"2\">\n<div class=\"zn_text_box eluid1fbea3ed zn_text_box-light element-scheme--light\">\n<div class=\"eluid40f3d9f1 col-md-6 col-sm-6 zn_sortable_content zn_content \" data-droplevel=\"2\">\n<div class=\"zn_text_box eluida161637e zn_text_box-light element-scheme--light\">\n<h2>PASSIGNANO SUL TRASIMENO<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"zn_text_box eluida161637e zn_text_box-light element-scheme--light\">\n<h3><span style=\"color: #808000;\">DISTANCE: 25 MINUTES<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Palio delle Barche in Passignano sul Trasimeno recalls the feud between the Oddi and Della Corgna families that divided the lake towninto two factions, escalating into a battle, culminating in the total elimination of the Oddi family. The Oddi, in order to take control of Passignano, allied themselves with Siena. In 1495 a small army of exiles from Siena and Perugia occupied the castle of Passignano. Perugia\u2019s reaction was so violent that the invaders hoisted boats on their shoulders and tried to save themselves by sailing in the direction of the islands, but in vain. The present-day Palio delle Barche takes its inspiration from that event of long ago. It is highly spectacular, and the only one of its kind.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The race is split into three stages: the\u00a0first and the third in water, the second on the land, with the contestants carrying the boats on their shoulders across the narrow streets of the historic centre.

Customs, traditions, culinary arts, politics and culture of the time, come to life in the \u201cCelebration of September to the end of the nineteenth century.\u00a0The \u201cFratta century\u201d wants to remember the way of life of the time referring to a precise historical documentation. While leaving space at the spectacular, in fact, historical reconstructions are extremely reliable, except perhaps some concessions to worldliness with the beautiful costumes of the more than 200 participants.<br \/>Umbertide the end of the 800 meant a strong shock the social, cultural and political life. This is because, subjugated for years by the domination of the Papal Government and passed to the Kingdom of Italy, the inhabitants of Umbertide (who took this name from 1863) took for the first time aware of the changes taking place around the world. Umbertide then tried to catch up with the times: the nineteenth Fratta therefore proposes a cross-section of that territory when, despite still being crossed by the troops of the formations of the Risorgimento, was beginning to feel more lively, especially in the forms of popular culture, now free from constraints and the complaints of the Papal Government.<br \/>In fact, the program of the festival offers many encounters with music from operas and operettas, plays, poetry readings and prose authors of the century, puppet shows, conferences and reconstructions of battles of the Risorgimento.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_button_module_wrapper et_pb_button_7_wrapper\"><a class=\"et_pb_button_7 et_pb_button et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\" href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/searchresults.en.html?city=-131507&#038;aid=354954&#038;no_rooms=1&#038;group_adults=1\" target=\"_blank\">Sleep in Umbertide<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_section_2 et_pb_section et_section_regular et_block_section\"><div class=\"et_pb_row_10 et_pb_row et_block_row\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_19 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_cta_0 et_pb_promo et_pb_bg_layout_dark et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_promo_description\"><h2 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">CORTONA EVENTS<\/h2><div class=\"et_pb_promo_content\"><p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_button_wrapper\"><a class=\"et_pb_button et_pb_promo_button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cortonamia.com\/en\/cortona-events\/\">LEARN MORE +<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_column_20 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et-last-child et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_cta_1 et_pb_promo et_pb_bg_layout_dark et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_promo_description\"><h2 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">TOP 10 ATTRACTIONS<\/h2><div class=\"et_pb_promo_content\"><p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_button_wrapper\"><a class=\"et_pb_button et_pb_promo_button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cortonamia.com\/en\/main-attractions\/\">LEARN MORE +<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"iawp_total_views":170,"footnotes":""},"wf_page_folders":[],"class_list":["post-1782","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
