The old Medici fortress of Volterra, Fortezza Medicea, is now a prison for criminals. Those who were sentenced to at least 7 years, so quite "heavy boys". So it may be surprising at first that there are held in the winter months on 6 to 8 appointments for guests ceremonial dinners. These meals are conducted by the inmates under the direction of renowned external chefs and great internal chefs.
