A breathtaking backdrop that allows you to celebrate your "I do" in complete exclusivity, surrounded by the stunning beauty of the Crete Senesi, with only your loved ones and the timeless magic of Tuscany by your side.

History

Originally built in the 12th century as an imposing defensive fortress, this remarkable estate has evolved through the centuries into a place of rare elegance. Once the residence of the noble Chigi family, its walls welcomed Fabio Chigi, who would later become Pope Alexander VII. Thanks to a meticulous restoration, its medieval charm and aristocratic spirit have been carefully preserved, allowing its rich heritage to endure to this day.
