For over 900 years, Florence has lit up Easter morning with literal fire. This dramatic tradition, known as Scoppio del Carro (Explosion of the Cart), dates back to the First Crusade.

These sacred relics were used to spark a holy fire, symbolizing resurrection, peace, and divine blessing. Today, the ritual begins inside the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.
