Tuoro 217 B.C.: Experience the Past with Reenactments, Shows, Food, and Music

Tuoro, 217 BC… The first light of day, the fog, the lake, and a rocky spur that creates a narrow pass inspire Hannibal, the commander of the Carthaginians, to set an ambush for the Roman legion that is on his trail. The Roman legion, noticing the signals deliberately left by Hannibal, falls into the trap: The tragic outcome will be over 15,000 deaths in less than 3 hours. The waters of Lake Trasimeno turn red. This battle would later be remembered as the **Battle of Lake Trasimeno**.
