Opening time: 9:00 AM – 7:00 PM
“Magical Autumnal Interweavings” at Castello di Strassoldo di Sopra, an event celebrating creativity, history, and the beauty of nature in an enchanting setting.
For 26 years, Castello di Strassoldo di Sopra, nestled in the delightful village of Strassoldo, proud member of the prestigious “Club of the Most Beautiful Villages of Italy,” has opened its ancient gates twice a year to welcome artisans, decorators, nurserymen, and carefully selected small agricultural producers from every corner of Italy.
For October, Friday morning has been added to ensure that the audience is less concentrated at other times. On this occasion, the castle will be adorned with suggestive autumnal decorations, creating an enchanted atmosphere that will accompany visitors on their journey through the historic halls, lush gardens, and the most secret corners of the complex.
Exhibitors will showcase their new collections, rigorously handcrafted, of high quality, and environmentally friendly. From jewellery to artworks, from fabrics to natural products, each booth offers an explosion of creativity and colour that will enchant the senses.
To satisfy even the most discerning palates, four refreshment points will offer local delicacies and gastronomic delights, while in the picturesque “brolo,” surrounded by crystal-clear streams, nurserymen will present rare and special plants.
“Magical Autumnal Interweavings” is a celebration of creativity, nature, and authenticity, an opportunity to escape the daily routine and immerse oneself in the positive energy of this unique place.
