On 25 March, Brescia celebrates Dantedì, the day dedicated to Dante Alighieri, with a programme combining culture, discovery and social occasions.
The afternoon begins with special guided tours: students from the city’s secondary schools will lead the public on a tour of 12 ‘Dante-themed’ locations across the city, including churches, museums and historic buildings, to explain the link between Brescia and the Divine Comedy.
At 6.30 pm, at the Diocesan Museum, a lecture by Dante scholar Gianfranco Bondioni explores contemporary interpretations of the Comedy. Following this, the evening continues with a Dante-inspired aperitif, combining fine food, culture and socialising.
Schedule
From 05.00 p.m. to 09.30 p.m.
Prices
All events are free of charge, with the exception of the aperitif dinner, which costs €20.
