Palazzo dei Vicari, Scarperia

Highlight • Historical Site

The picturesque town of Scarperia is renowned for the artisanal production of knives. In addition to the shops selling the best knives and agricultural tools, the Palazzo dei Vicari houses the Museum of Cutting Irons. On the facade of the building you can see all the coats of arms of past governments. On 8 September the Palio di Diotto is held, a historical re-enactment attended by all the districts of the town. On the last Sunday of May the 'Infiorata' event takes place where the town is decorated entirely with flowers and flower paintings.

Sieve Ecotourism Trail

Highlight • Cycleway

From Borgo San Lorenzo to Vicchio you can follow this cycle path (not suitable for racing bikes given the rather bumpy surface) which often runs near the Sieve and between the fields.

Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Three Rivers

Highlight • Religious Site

"Mary is really our sister, as Saint Ambrose says. She lived a life very similar to ours. It is of course beautiful to venerate Mary as the Virgin and Mother of God, as the one conceived immaculately by original sin and assumed into heaven; but she is also the Madonna of plates, brooms and cooking pots..." With the motif of the broom, Albino Luciani (Pope John Paul I) may be taking up a thought of his predecessor in the office of Bishop of Rome, Giuseppe Roncalli (Pope John XXIII), who is said to have said: "One can become holy with a pastoral staff in one's hand, but just as one can become holy with a broom."

Passo della Colla

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The pass is located in the municipality of Borgo San Lorenzo, in the province of Florence, at 913 m above sea level, along the former state road 302 Brisighellese Ravennate. It takes its name from the hamlet of Casaglia, which is the first town you come across when descending from the Romagna side. The former Alpe di Casaglia state road 477 branches off from the pass in a northerly direction and, after passing the nearby Sambuca Pass, descends the Senio valley.
