The Diotto of Scarperia is one of the most suggestive folkloristic festivals of the Mugello area, whose origins are lost in the mists of time.
Literally, Diotto means "Say 8", indicating the day of September 8th. On this date, every year, Scarperia recalls its historical events with the commemoration of the appointment of "Lo Novo Vicario" (the new Vicar) who took office every 6 months. The Vicar had administrative and juridical powers and controlled a very vast territory, made up of various podestà.
