Why come to the Valdarno Superiore? Because, in spite of its history, its variegated land, from the bottom of the valleys to the hills to the mountains, its vegetation, the best wine, and the typical food, it still remains today an unknown land. We will be happy if you would learn to know it with us, through a beautiful holiday, because it is a lovely and full of charm land …….
Some directions:
In the historical centre of MONTEVARCHI you should see: collegiata (collegiate church) of S.Lorenzo and the parish museum, the paleontological museum placed in the fifteenth-century cloister of the S. Ludovico ex- convent. The Art Nouveau villas like Villa Masini where Roberto Benigni has shot some scenes of “La vita è bella” (Life is beautiful). And also, every Thursday morning there is the weekly market, while the second Saturday of the month there is the Mercatale were they sell local food farming.
