"At dinner with Byzantines" is a three-day long event, hosting thousands of visitors yearly, raises from the “a tavola con i popoli antichi” (“at dinner with the ancient peoples”) initiative by the Italian Ministry of Heritage and Cultural Activities, the good will of the Italian Archeoclub – Crecchio Branch (which manages the Museum of Byzantine and Early Medieval Abruzzo in the Ducal Castle since 1993) and the efficiency of all the local associations working in the municipality.
“At dinner with the Byzantines”: from the evening to the night... a travel into the memory of our land, through cultural events, guided tours into the museum, reconstructions of the Byzantine society and eno-gastronomic opportunities among the borgo alleyways.
