The centuries old tradition of artistic pottery in Montelupo Fiorentino, both workshop and kiln to the Florence of the Renaissance, still lives on thanks to the activities of renowned factories and numerous handicraft workshops.

The Pottery Museum, recently updated and extended, presents the manufactures of the local studios, starting with
the Middle Ages, going through the period of greatest Renaissance splendour, and ending with our own times. Every year, in June, the history and the traditions of Montelupo are revived on the occasion of the International Pottery Fair.

This includes shows, exhibitions, and art events lasting a full week.
