About La Rocca in Fiore
Monselice dresses up in flowers
La Rocca in Fiore is the great spring festival of Monselice, a town in the Euganean Hills in the province of Padua, dominated by the Rocca hill. For an entire weekend in May, the historic center transforms into a widespread garden, with a market exhibition of quality floriculturists and certified artistic craftsmanship.
Installations and secret gardens
The heart of the event is Piazza Mazzini, enlivened by immersive floral installations, dance and music performances, and artisan workshops (macramé, botanical watercolor). The festival is an opportunity to discover normally inaccessible places: the extraordinary opening of the medieval gardens of Castello Cini, the 'Literary Garden' of Villa Duodo, and botanical creations at the Pieve di Santa Giustina and the Santuario delle Sette Chiesette.
A quality event
Recognized as an 'Event of High Quality', La Rocca in Fiore is organized by the Pro Loco of Monselice with the support of the Municipality and local associations. An event that combines greenery, culture, craftsmanship, and the beauty of the Euganean village.
