Just minutes from Misia, the land around Orvieto and Rocca Ripesena comes alive
throughout the year with cultural events, music, and ancient traditions.
Staying in the village means experiencing these moments differently:
joining the celebrations by day, then returning in the evening to silence, soft light, and the
calm of the valley.
Book and Rose Day
April 23
An afternoon dedicated to books and roses, set within the village’s public library.
An intimate moment that anticipates the blooming season and reflects the cultural soul of
Rocca Ripesena.
Rocca Ripesena in Festa – Regeneration
May 30–31 · June 1
Three days of talks, craftsmanship, local knowledge, and convivial gatherings, centred

the borgo opens its doors to botanists, designers, scholars, and curious visitors.
Local street food, artisan markets, music, and evenings in the village bring the celebration
to life.
The Night of St. John
June 23
A magical evening among rose gardens and ancient traditions: gathering wild herbs, a
shared dinner, and, as night falls, the lighting of the traditional St. John’s Bonfire.
An ancient ritual, experienced in a place seemingly outside of time.
For a Handful of Stars
August 7–8
Two evenings dedicated to stargazing, with telescopes and expert guides.

stars and constellations.

intimate atmosphere — ideal for a slow, contemplative stay.
