Easter in Maremma is a special occasion to rediscover authentic traditions, ancient flavors and moments of sharing that are rooted in the rural and religious culture of the area. In this part of Tuscany, the Easter holiday is lived with great intensity, amid religious rites, typical recipes and customs handed down from generation to generation.
One of the most heartfelt moments is Holy Week, during which evocative evening processions are organized in many Maremma villages, such as those in Pitigliano, Sorano and Massa Marittima. Figurants in period dress, lit torches and liturgical chants create an intense and spiritual atmosphere, involving residents and visitors in an experience with a strong symbolic value.
Traditional cuisine also plays a central role in the celebration of Easter in Maremma. Dishes such as tortello maremmano, stuffed with ricotta and spinach and served with meat sauce, orroast lamb with potatoes, a symbol of rebirth and sacrifice, cannot be missed. A typical Easter dessert is the schiaccia di Pasqua, a leavened sweet bread scented with anise and orange zest, prepared with care and patience in the days leading up to the feast.
A custom still alive in some rural areas is that of cart bursting or ruzzola, an ancient Easter game of rolling large cheese wheels or wooden discs over hilly paths, a symbol of fertility and good luck.
Spending Easter in Maremma means immersing oneself in an authentic dimension, made up of simple gestures, conviviality and traditions that tell the story of an area still deeply tied to its roots. An ideal choice for those who want to experience the festivities far from chaos, surrounded by nature and the most genuine Tuscan culture.
👉 And to experience all this in the heart of Maremma, take advantage of the Borgo Etrusco's Easter promo: stay at least 3 nights and immediately receive a 25% discount on the total! Relaxation, tradition and nature are waiting for you for an unforgettable Easter.
