Natural Shopping Centre

Castiglion Fiorentino's old town was one of the first in the Province of Arezzo to be acknowledged as a «Natural Shopping Centre», a project which aims to create amongst the shops of the old town a compact, coordinated network in terms of image and commercial offer, an alternative to large shopping stores. The Natural Shopping Centre has a logo and a name: «Vie di Castiglion Fiorentino» (Streets of C.F.), striking poster design, promotional strategies and a rich programme of events, not to mention a beautiful intact old town centre with large car parks for visitors outside the walls.
