HISTORY OF THE VILLAGE

At the heart of Italy, on the border between Tuscany and Umbria, on a relief located in a large hilly and forest system, lies an ancient medieval village, just 3 km from the 'A1 highway linking Rome to Florence . On the adjacent hill is the castle, in whose court is a chalet-style degree.
The area has in the immediate vicinity of all the useful services such as banks, hospitals, pharmacies, shopping malls, railway station, schools, etc. ..
The first information concerning the fortress dates back to 1243 when Emperor Frederick II with an edict establishes the boundaries of the surrounding territory. In medieval times we talk of the town in terms of the duchy which was undisputed ownership of the Papal States, but its position of great strategic importance to the border between the Papal States and the Grand Duke of Tuscany made it the subject of numerous and bitter quarrels.
Cesare Borgia, the pope had to win twice.
The village as the village already existed in the fourteenth century is a story says that in 1317 the village sent a contingent of men in support of the army Pontifical League.
Later there was established a permanent garrison defense of the border between the Papal States and the Grand Duke of Tuscany, with a company of soldiers. In 1563 with a papal bull, the suburb was named duchy with all the privileges that followed: the possibility of having troops, administer justice, hold their fairs and markets, the privileges that will continue until 1700. The village remained until the feud di'Italia.
