An ancient tradition tells that every Ascianese who drinks the water that flows from the fountain of Mencia, placed at the feet of the Civic Tower, can not forget his native country and, wherever he lives, does everything to come back periodically.
It is tradition that the “Menciaioli” gather to celebrate the homecoming around a large table to eat a succulent dinner together.
This is also the occasion to award citizens and associations that stood out for the sake of Asciano.
The event is organized by Pro Loco of Asciano on the third Friday of September.
