Elena and Stefano, the owners, also changed their lives by starting this adventure at the Antico Borgo Carceri, leaving Milan and their former banking careers. History, Nature, and Hospitality This wedding venue traces its roots back to the 14th century when it was probably a place of retreat and prayer for friars in the area. The name "Carceri" in Italian means "prison." As for the "Eremo delle Carceri" near Assisi, it was a place of peace where friars "imprisoned" themselves in prayer. Later, it was inhabited by farming families connected with the cultivation of the surrounding land. After a long period of abandonment, the hamlet was now a ruin... until its rebirth in 2000, thanks to a careful restoration that respected its historical soul. Today, the Antico Borgo Carceri has returned to its former glory, with interior spaces made even warmer and more atmospheric, manicured gardens and large terraces where friends and family can be welcomed in an authentic and relaxed atmosphere. Facilities and Capacity Antico Borgo Carceri offers the ideal setting to celebrate your wedding and experience special days together with your loved ones.
