Handicrafts and Gastronomy: Ancient crafts

We offer you a journey in search of ancient crafts.
In the Marche region there is a wealth of culture and ancient traditions, protected by the walls of the small urban townships; there are still today many crafts men/women, once at the service of local agriculture. Through the five itineraries on offer there will be the opportunity for visitors to discover ancient crafts, alternating stops at the workshops where purchases can be made with visits to the numerous museums of popular traditions and to the lively artistic craft markets.
