Learn something about Palio tradition directly from the local inhabitants, visiting a traditional museum of a contrada

Description

During the Welcome Week of the first semester 2021/2022, we organized together with the Valdimontone Contrada a visit to their own personal nd historical museum. Local people of the contrada show to our Erasmus their history, talked about palio and the importance of battling and winning the race. Our students coud look at flags, clothes and photos of the contrada and start to understand how important is this tradition for our city and for people living the "contrada life". The event was made in full respectance of Covid-19 restriction laws, for people having the European Green Pass certfication.
