During the Fair in Terranuova, the Bird Fair is held on Monday, which now boasts over 400 editions. The event takes place in the public park at the Ciuffenna stream and, although it continues to represent an important appointment for the sale, the exchange of decoy birds has expanded in recent decades and has become a market exhibition of tropical birds, and animals from company. The link with tradition, however, has been maintained thanks to the recent reintroduction of the display of barn and courtyard animals, and the competition The whistle of gold, a competition of imitation of bird verses that brings the best to the village " whistlers "of Italy, and with the. During this event, singing and imitation competitions are held: about thirty "garisti" bring with them to sing about a hundred birds, rock thrushes and song thrushes, blackbirds, finches, sparrows and larks, challenging each other in the respective competition fields.

Croce del Pratomagno

Highlight • Monument

The Croce del Pratomagno is a monument that was inaugurated on September 2, 1928: it is a large modular iron cross that dominates the whole massif and is visible even from a great distance. In November 1966, due to bad weather, the upper part collapsed and was later relocated in 1969; on 27 July 2013, the inauguration of the new restoration and redevelopment of the site was carried out by the Construction Service of the Province of Arezzo.

Poggio di Loro

Highlight • Settlement

It has existed since the Middle Ages and, despite its simplicity, suggests it was once an important and popular village.

Perched gently beneath the slopes of Pratomagno (626 meters above sea level), it was an important link between Casentino and Valdarno in ancient times.

The remains of the castle walls and its characteristic houses built of local stone, arranged according to the concentric layout of the ancient medieval castle, contribute to the village's unique atmosphere, inviting you to discover, in its simplicity, the memories of a bygone era. Within the walls, the narrow cobbled streets lead to the small square where the church of Santa Maria Assunta is located. This extraordinary Romanesque church was built in the 11th century on the ruins of the ancient parish church of Santa Maria in Advena, as it appears in an ancient document from 780 AD in which Charlemagne donated it to the Abbey of Nonantola.

Recognized as one of the most beautiful villages in Italy by the homonymous association, Loro Ciuffenna has ancient roots and is perched on the Ciuffenna river. Picturesque, absolutely worth a visit, it has various churches and bridges that allow you to glimpse waterfalls and mills.

View of Loro Ciuffenna

Highlight • Viewpoint

Loro Ciuffenna is located between the Arno river (towards Arezzo) and the hills. All around there are the "Balze", or natural formations of clay and sand up to a hundred meters high. The stone houses built on the gorge of the Ciuffenna river, as well as the cobblestones or streets, recall the medieval origins of the village.

Historic center of Terranuova Bracciolini

Highlight • Historical Site

The center of Terranuova still has a clearly visible layout of a medieval walled land and inside it preserves a remarkable artistic heritage. Wandering through the narrow and straight streets of the town allows you to retrace the path that makes up the grid of the original urban structure, come across the churches of the peoples who came to live here in the fourteenth century, and admire the palaces of the nobles from Terranovesi from the Renaissance period.
The visit to the historic center can start from the Ganghereta Church located between the current via Mazzini and via Fazia, on which it has the façade; Then, taking via Mazzini up to the intersection with via Concini, you will find the Church of Pernina, today of the Misericordia. Via Concini is one of the roads that have been best preserved and that have less suffered the passage of the front during the Second World War, continuing towards the south, in fact, there is the Palazzo Concini, home of the historic Terranuovese family, the Hospice of the Friars of Verna and, at the crossroads of via Ricasoli, the Chiesa dei Mori. Always following via Ricasoli you will arrive at the Church of the Well, a few meters from the Benedictine Oratory and its Cloister located in via Fazia. Going along this road again to the intersection with Via Garibaldi, you arrive at Piazza della Repubblica, where on the north side you can see the Archpriesthood of Santa Maria Bambino, and on the east side the modern municipal building. Crossing the square towards Viale Piave is located, close to the walls, the new council chamber obtained from the now deconsecrated church of the White Veste, and, just outside the walls, the modern Church of Santa Maria Nova, designed by Mario Botta.
To conclude, we recommend a walk along the main street, via Roma, to discover the facades of the ancient noble palaces such as Palazzo Inghirami.
