Serremaggio is a Medieval historical re-enactment that has taken place in Serre di Rapolano since 1994. It is the feast of Ciambragina, wife of Giovanni de Rossi, a wealthy Sienese merchant in the second half of the 14th century. He met a beautiful girl in Cambrai in France, fell in love with her, married her and brought her to Siena, where she was called Ciambragina. When he heard that the Cacciaconti, the powerful local feudal lords in inevitable decline, were planning to sell their keep, the wealthy merchant bought it: rich as it was with cellars, storerooms, stables, kitchens, armoury rooms, large dining rooms and painted rooms, it seemed to him the ideal place to make his Ciambragina's palace as well as the workshop of his art. The young couple's happiness was short-lived. Giovanni de'Rossi, in fact, died suddenly in Naples during a trip undertaken because of his trafficking' Ciambragina thus remained lady of the keep and was lady of the Serre for about thirty years, until, at the beginning of the 15th century, her son Ugo Giovanni rebelled against the Sienese, who, after dramatic events, destroyed our keep.
