Originally a medieval tower, the estate evolved as a centre of farming activities, and was for centuries a cherished possession of the noble Medici Tornaquinci family.
Antico Borgo La Torre, a captivating property steeped in history, traces its origins to the medieval era. The site once housed a sturdy tower, part of fortifications for the nearby feudal Castle of Viesca. While the castle met its demise, the tower endured, its thick walls forming the core of the present-day western building.
Over time, the tower expanded into an agrarian complex, with additional structures, including a granary and a brick-kiln, emerging to support the farm’s operations. By the 18th century, the estate assumed its current layout, becoming a cherished possession of the noble Medici Tornaquinci family.
The granary, dating back to the 17th century, once served as a hub for grain storage. Its elegant and sophisticated design reflects the social standing of the family. Today, the granary has been meticulously restored, transforming into a magnificent venue for weddings and conferences.
In contrast, the brick-kiln, once a bustling center of production, has gracefully transitioned into a serene lake. Fed by natural springs, the lake now harmonizes with the estate’s natural beauty, serving as a testament to the property’s rich industrial heritage.
