Florence even has its own original version of the game. Calcio storico is played every June in Piazza Santa Croce, and it’s a lot rougher than 5v5. Fiorentina, in purple, turns 100 in 2026 at the Stadio Artemio Franchi, which is under renovation. The rest of the year, Florentines play calcetto (minus the punches).
