Investiture of the Knight, an ancient Lombard rite

Attend a ceremony of great historical and cultural impact: the "Investiture of the Knight" , an event that will be held on Saturday, August 23, and will project you directly into the heart of the Middle Ages.

It will be a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the traditions, values and symbolism of the medieval era, observing a ritual that, through gestures and words charged with meaning, shaped the identity and social role of these valiant warriors.
