In 1250 the Terzieri are appointed for the first time in the act of submission to Perugia after a brief period of autonomy and freedom due to the protection of the Emperor Frederick II of Swabia, the ancient castle of Pieve was from the city of Griffin . The final urban design dates back to the city and reached almost unchanged to this day, it is characterized by a silhouette of the city in some ways reminiscent of that of an eagle in a threatening way towards Rome. The Terzieri originate from the splitting of the medieval city into three pieces of land, the parts of the Terzieri identify with, which in turn refer to three social classes: the head is the third castle of the knights or class (aristocracy) , to the belly the Terziere Borgo Dentro (Middle class), the wing-tail Terziere Casalino or Class of Walkers (Farmers). Today the Knights of Terzieri recall the ancient hunting Toro, challenging each other in the art of archery, striking silhouettes representing the Chianina breed of bulls set on mobile platforms. Each year, the parade is led by the group organized by 'local authority, followed by the Master of scene, the Gonfalon, the City and the Judges. A parade of more than 800 characters: banner, soldiers, nobles, ladies and gentlemen, commoners and eaters are walking the streets of the center, entertaining the spectators with tricks and skills. After the traditional parade, a majestic float that inspired Classical Antiquity, walks through the streets led by companies of musicians playing tunes rinascimentali.
