| Santa Fiora - the town | ||
Santa Fiora, a medieval town at an altitude of 800 metres, situated at the foot of Monte Amiata, regarded as one of the most beautiful natural environments in Italy was chosen as the ideal location for the Festival. The presence of natural springs, woods and mountains and the town's ambitious and well organised council appeal to an all year round tourism. An ample choice of high quality hotels and restaurants, catering for every pocket, meets the needs of both course participants and the tourism generated by the Festival. Courses take place in local schools and the concerts are held in some of the town's most charming locations, including the fish pond and parish church, with its extraordinary Della Robbia ceramics, and the Cloisters of the Monastero della Selva, all renowned for their spectacular architecture and ideal acoustics. Concerts are also held in the town's many squares. |
