The Parade of the Three Kings

The City of Giglio also gives its best in the first days of the year by organising the traditional costume parade of the Three Kings bringing gifts to the baby Jesus. This re-enactment, which dates back to 1417 when male members of the De' Medici family also took part in the procession, is a real blast from the past that entertains all the participants who gather in Piazza Duomo. Fans of nativity scenes can stop by Among the public that festively awaits the arrival of costumed ladies and knights, there will certainly also be nativity scene enthusiasts who perhaps do not know that around the capital of the Renaissance there are many more or less well-known places that hide true works of art. For instance, in Castelfiorentino and in Cerreto Guidi, it is possible to stroll through the historical centre in a true 'Street of Cribs' with different works, characterised by professionalism, different materials, but also great signatures of master craftsmen. Finally, a passage to Vinci to come across the living nativity scene.
