This medieval, tiny village is the home for The International School of Painting and Drawing

The population within the walls counts 130 people, most of them are elderly, very friendly people.
Situated on the top of a mountain we were rewarded with the famous landscape views. I fell in love with this place and the people. Twice a week there is an open-air fest with live music. And everybody is on the dance floor, young and old. Mainly ball-room dances and a sort of line-dancing. We all had great fun and sore feet. Here are some images if the town
Giovanni's cafe, where I had my morning coffee

The parade for the upcoming card-box-races. An annual event between 5 villages. This year in Montecastello.
And Montecastello was the winner for this year
always with the blessing of the priest
impressive drummers & public
