Chess Game with Living Characters 2026. Marostika


In northern Italy, at the foot of the picturesque Asiago Plateau in the province of Vicenza, lies the charming medieval town of Marostica. Every two years, its main square - Piazza Castello - is transformed into a giant chessboard. Instead of wooden pieces, real people in lavish 15th-century costumes take their places on the marble squares: kings, queens, knights, foot soldiers, and even rooks.
