Easter is, traditionally, the feast of rebirth and hope, is announced by the first full moon of spring, and brings all the joy of the beginning of the summer.
An old Italian proverb “Christmas with the yours, Easter with whomever you want” exemptions from the obligation to spend the day with the family and makes it therefore considered an anniversary less ritual although rich in customs and traditions. The egg (chicken or chocolate) and lamb are considered to be an Easter imperative. The egg, in fact, represents in popular wisdom the origin of life, the rebirth. The lamb suggests the sacrifice of Christ, “Lamb of God.”

In Torrazzetta the lunch on Easter and Easter Monday are held in company, in a rustic and warm immersed in a nature that is rebirthing after the winter period.

Torrazzetta also has several cozy rooms for those who want a relaxing weekend or a holiday in contact with nature, but without losing the modern comforts.
