Cooking Class
Nestled among the gentle hills of the Republic of San Marino, Podere Lesignano is a historic farmhouse dating back to 1850, where you can enjoy an authentic cooking class in Italy, surrounded by nature, tradition and flavor.
Surrounded by vineyards and centuries-old olive trees, we will welcome you into a refined yet genuine setting, perfect for those seeking an authentic and immersive culinary experience.
An authentic “farm-to-table” culinary experience.
Our cooking class in San Marino is much more than a simple cooking lesson: it is a journey into Italian rural culture.

Educational Farm
& Workshops
The Educational Farm at Podere Lesignano is a place of active learning, open to children, teenagers and adults, where learning takes place through hands-on experiences and direct contact with nature. Here, the connection between agriculture and food is discovered firsthand through practical activities that bring the processes of rural life to life.
Our approach is based on “learning by doing”: sowing, harvesting, processing and tasting become opportunities for engaging and sensory learning. Great importance is also placed on interacting with animals and plants, helping to foster respect for nature and environmental awareness.
It is an authentic educational experience that brings together discovery, tradition and sharing.

Jinja
The San Marino Jinja is a memorial monument dedicated to the victims of the 2011 Great Tōhoku Earthquake and is the first Shinto-style shrine in Europe. Nestled in the grounds of Podere Lesignano, it is a place of contemplation and reflection that brings together Japanese culture and the Sammarinese landscape.
Shintoism is an ancient spiritual tradition centered on harmony with nature and the reverence of its elements, such as water, wind, mountains and trees, which are regarded as manifestations of the sacred. The path to the shrine invites visitors into an experience of tranquility and mindfulness, where nature itself becomes a spiritual and symbolic space.
