Getting married in Scarperia

Scarperia is one of the most interesting historic centres in the Mugello area. The hamlet was built as a sort of Florentine outpost along the via Bolognese. The heart of the hamlet of Scarperia is the Palazzo dei Vicari, a residential palace dating back to the fourteenth century, stark and turreted on the side looking onto the square and a fortress at the rear. Today it also houses the Museum of Knives and the succession of restoration work has made it resemble the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. In the Mayor’s office, civil weddings may be celebrated in a very picturesque backdrop.
