Anghiari, Italy skyline: the 25 most iconic buildings and best views in Anghiari

I have previously lived in Italy and have visited dozens of museums throughout the peninsula; this was by far the worst Italian museum experience I have ever had. Better artifacts can be viewed in any antique Italian church for free, and the cold, unwelcoming, and condescending staff seem to try their best to destroy whatever atmospheric charm this small, bush-league exhibition could possess. Museo di Palazzo Taglieschi is a thoroughly mediocre museum paired with a thoroughly unfriendly staff. Don’t waste your time or money.

This would be a nice museum, however the staff hovers over you as if waiting for you to break or touch something. Our family went through - my husband and four children ages 13 to 22. My 22 year old son ( an honors history major - who studied a year in Viterbo) was told he was not allowed to go ahead of us and had to stay with us. My son has been in museums all over Italy much larger and grander than this museum and was never treated this rudely. It was ridiculous. Hard to enjoy the art and history while someone looks over your shoulder and directs you to the next room. She even opened the door to let us exit.

(Translated by Google) Visited with everything that the Borgo contains... which is a lot. The Palace, which we see today, is the Renaissance result of an incorporation of previously existing tower houses and older structures and was the home of the Taglieschi family. Only this has already been "discovered" (I guarantee because it is a "choppy" route in a suggestive ups and downs) in the visit to the State Museum which collects the testimonies of the territory ranging from "material" coming from abandoned churches and not to collections such as those of weapons. For those who are lucky enough to happen upon "themed" visits there is the possibility of accessing the loggia from which you can enjoy a wonderful view of the village but... it didn't happen to me... alas. It is possible to purchase a single ticket for entry to the Battle Museum. Remember that you enter on the hour (for example, I entered at 11:00) because you are accompanied on the visit. Once out I recommend climbing the stairs of Via della Torre... you can observe photographic glimpses at every step. (Original) Visitato con tutto ciò che il Borgo racchiude ... che è molto. Il Palazzo, che vediamo oggi, è il risultato in chiave rinascimentale, di un inglobamento di Case Torri e strutture più antiche precedentemente esistenti ed era dimora della famiglia Taglieschi. Solo questo è per già "scoperta" (garantisco perché si tratta di un percorso "mosso" in un sali e scendi suggestivo) nella visita ad Museo Statale che raccoglie le testimonianze del territorio che vanno da "materiale" proveniente dalle Chiese dismesse e non alle collezioni come quella d'armi. Per chi ha la fortuna di capitare in occasione di visite "a tema" c'è la possibilità di accedere alla loggia da cui si gode un panorama stupendo sul Borgo ma ... non è capitato a me ... ahime. E' possibile fare un unico biglietto per l'ingresso anche al Museo della Battaglia. Da ricordarsi che si accede allo scoccare dell'ora (io, ad esempio sono entrato alle ore 11:00) perché si è accompagnati nella visita. Una volta usciti consiglio di salire per le scale di Via della Torre ... si possono osservare scorci fotografici ad ogni passo.

(Translated by Google) The multitude of works of art collected in this beautiful Palace essentially come from the territory. Spread over three floors and a basement, it displays, among others, a wonderful "Madonna and Child" by Jacopo della Quercia and a beautiful "Nativity" by Andrea della Robbia. At the entrance it is possible to purchase a cumulative ticket, which can be used for the Battle Museum opposite. Museum to absolutely visit. (Original) La moltitudine di opere d'arte raccolte in questo bellissimo Palazzo proviene essenzialemente dal territorio. Articolata su tre piani ed un sotterraneo espone, tra le altre, una meravigliosa "Madonna col Bambino" di Jacopo della Quercia ed una bellissima "Natività" di Andrea della Robbia. All'ingresso è possibile acquistare un biglietto cumulativo, utilizzabile per l'antistante Museo della Battaglia. Museo da visitare assolutamente.

(Translated by Google) The museum is a small jewel: distributed across four floors of the (truly suggestive) Palazzo Taglieschi, it presents numerous works of art, a collection of weapons, everyday objects from churches and historic buildings in the Tiber Valley area. The "star" of the museum is a beautiful wooden sculpture of the Virgin by Jacopo della Quercia from the 15th century. If you pass by Anghiari don't miss it. (Original) Il museo è un piccolo gioiello: distribuiti in quattro piani del (davvero suggestivo) Palazzo Taglieschi, presenta numerose opere d'arte, una collezione di armi, oggetti d'uso comune provenienti da chiese ed edifici storici dell'area Valtiberina. La "star" del museo è una bellissima scultura lignea della Vergine di Jacopo della Quercia del XV secolo. Se passate da Anghiari non perdetevelo.

(Translated by Google) Located in a very beautiful medieval context, in a village full of narrow streets and surrounded by a very beautiful defensive wall. It is very beautiful to visit I highly recommend it (Original) Situato in un contesto medievale molto bello ,in un borgo pieno divicoletti e circondato da una muraglia difensiva molto bella. È molto bello da visitare Lo consiglio vivamente

(Translated by Google) An absolutely fascinating visit to a museum which is a more unique than rare set of ancient tower houses conglomerated in a single labyrinthine palace. Inside there are very valuable wooden sculptures of sacred art that come from the surrounding area. The Madonnas with Child are also enchanting because they offer the possibility of enjoying women's fashion from the thirteenth to the fifteenth century down to the smallest details, in the rendering of the colored fabrics and the hairstyles painted on the wood. The Madonna by Jacopo della Quercia is marvelous with its sweet and intense expression. The lady who accompanied us on the visit was perfect and explained very interesting things to us. (Original) Una visita assolutamente affascinante in un museo che è un insieme più unico che raro di antiche case-torre conglomerate in un unico labirintico palazzo. All'interno pregevolissime sculture lignee d'arte sacra che provengono dal territorio circostante. Incantevoli le Madonne con Bambino anche perché offrono la possibilità di gustare fin nei dettagli la moda femminile dal Duecento al Quattrocento, nella resa dei tessuti colorati e delle acconciature dipinte sul legno. Meravigliosa la Madonna di Jacopo della Quercia dall'espressione dolce e intensa. La signora che ci ha accompagnati nella visita è stata perfetta e ci ha spiegato cose interessantissime.

Visit only if you're intetested about this kind of history and battles. The tour inside this museum takes around 40 mins (We forgot to see the garden). There're 3 floors, you can find two 3D maps explaining where happened this battle, and how is the area. There're also paintings, materials of the battle. Then you can watch a short movie (in Italian & English) explaining about its history, then telling about the painting that exist in Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. It's good also for kids because it's very simple, and not so boring. On the ground floor they sell collection of books also for kids, and some toys related to the battle, or Leonardo da Vinci in general.

If you are looking for Leonardo da Vinci (current show), save money on a book. Only posters. Small local museum. Nothing more.

Very interesting view over an historic event and Leonardo da Vinci. Great place to visit.

It's not that expensive and it provides a suitable view of the battle

Nature

Is a breath taken place and a few Michelins Restaurants,

(Translated by Google) It's a pretty disappointing museum. A very pleasant and well-kept container, the sixteenth-century Palazzo del Marzocco, corresponds to a modest content, not up to expectations. Of the battle of Anghiari there are only a few illustrative panels and a model of the deployments, which are not of high quality. The sector dedicated to weapons is very sparse and the weapons date back to centuries after the battle. Sure, you can read the fascinating story of the lost wall painting that Leonardo created for the Salone dei Cinquecento in Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, but frankly you can read it anywhere. Virtual reconstructions just need to be made available and you can view them more comfortably at home. There are some paintings, but always without any connection with the battle, except a seventeenth-century copy of part of Leonardo's lost work and little else. The battle of Anghiari fought in 1440 between the Milanese troops of the Viscontis and the coalition led by the Republic of Florence deserves the presence of real and not virtual objects. (Original) È un museo abbastanza deludente. Ad un contenitore molto gradevole e ben tenuto, il cinquecentesco Palazzo del Marzocco, corrisponde un contenuto modesto, non all'altezza delle aspettative. Della battaglia di Anghiari c'è solo qualche pannello illustrativo ed un plastico degli schieramenti, di non elevata fattura. Il settore dedicato alle armi è molto scarno e le armi sono di secoli successivi a quelli della battaglia. Certo, si può leggere la storia affascinante della pittura murale perduta che Leonardo realizzò per il Salone dei Cinquecento di Palazzo Vecchio a Firenze, ma francamente la si può leggere ovunque. Le ricostruzioni virtuali basta renderle disponibili e si possono vedere più comodamente a casa. C'è qualche dipinto, ma sempre senza alcun nesso con la battaglia, tranne una copia seicentesca di parte dell'opera perduta di Leonardo e poco altro. La battaglia di Anghiari combattuta nel 1440 fra le truppe milanesi dei Visconti e la coalizione guidata dalla Repubblica di Firenze meriterebbe la presenza di oggetti reali e non virtuali.

(Translated by Google) Palazzo Pretorio stands out on the large square at the highest point of Anghiari. Recently restored, it is the seat of the municipality. It dates back to the 14th century and appears externally covered with coats of arms of the various vicars and podestàs who have succeeded over time in administering justice on behalf of the Florentine government. Also on the facade a niche protects a partly lost sacred fresco. The ground floor can be visited for free during the opening hours of the municipality, here there are the remains of two Roman-era tanks relating to the production of wine, a 15th century fresco depicting justice, a prison and other rooms and minor works. (Original) Palazzo Pretorio spicca sull’ampia piazza nel punto più alto di Anghiari. Restaurato recentemente è sede del comune. Risale al XIV secolo e appare esternamente tappezzato da stemmi dei vari vicari e podestà che si sono succeduti nel corso del tempo nell’amministrare la giustizia per conto del governo fiorentino. Sempre sulla facciata una nicchia protegge un affresco sacro in parte perduto. Il piano terra è visitabile gratuitamente durante gli orari di apertura del comune, qui sono presenti i resti di due vasche di epoca romana relative alla produzione del vino, un affresco del XV secolo raffigurante la giustizia, una prigione ed altri locali e opere minori.

(Translated by Google) The Praetorian Palace, previously Palazzo del Vicario, dates back to the 14th century and is today the municipal seat. Located in the heart of Anghiari, it has an L-shaped plan and a facade decorated with the coats of arms of the Florentine vicars. In the past it was the seat of the Court, of which it preserves secrets, a chapel and a 15th century fresco depicting Justice, attributed to Antonio di Anghiari. (Original) Il Palazzo Pretorio, in precedenza Palazzo del Vicario, risale al XIV secolo ed è oggi la sede municipale. Situato nel cuore di Anghiari, ha una pianta a L e una facciata decorata con gli stemmi dei vicari fiorentini. In passato fu sede del Tribunale, di cui conserva segrete, una cappella e un affresco del XV secolo raffigurante la Giustizia, attribuito ad Antonio di Anghiari.

Private but drove by and very picturesque. Worth a drive by and brief walk in the area near the castle.

This is the "castle" not the restaurant. It's a group of buildings lightly fortified with a curious history. Free entry to the cellar and the torture museum. You can even sleep or plan dinner and a party here. The family runs the locanda and the castle from generations and they organize events like the dinner with the ghost inside the castle.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, rustic style inside, but really nice place.... good food and generous portions. Also gluten free I went with my boyfriend we took two fixed menus for around 30 and each included appetizers 2 first courses second courses mixed meat side dish very good potatoes in their skins. I only took the photo right away because then my cell phone turned off. But the very abundant first courses were tagliatelle with sauce and polenta with red mushrooms. I recommend it (Original) Bellissimo il posto, dentro stile rustico, ma posto veramente bello.... cibi buono e porzioni abbondanti. Anche senza glutine sono stata con il mio ragazzo abbiamo preso due menu fissi a 30 e circa ciascuno comprendevano antipasti 2 primi secondi do carne mista contorno patate con la buccia molto buone. Ho fatto la foto solo all'antiapsto perch4 poi mi si è spento il cellulare. Ma primi molt9 abbondanti c'erano le tagliatelle con sugo e polenta con funghi rossa. Lo consiglio

(Translated by Google) I hadn't been back for several years. To tell the truth, I wasn't particularly convinced the last time. Now I can assure you that if you come to visit this splendid reality you will be satisfied in soul and waistcoat. Splendid location, (I recommend a brief excursion on its history before arriving), affordable menu,.. I would say low if compared to the quality of the restaurant between cuisine and establishment. What can I say, my whole family was very impressed. Among the best restaurants on my personal list. (Original) Non tornavo da diversi anni. A dire il vero l'ultima volta non rimasi particolarmente convinto. Ora posso assicurare che se passerai a far visita a questa splendida realtà rimarrai appagato nell'animo e nel panciotto. Splendida location,(vi consiglio un breve escursus sulla sua storia prima di arrivare), menu a prezzo contenuto,.. direi basso se paragonato alla qualità del ristorante tra cucina e stabile. Che dire, tutta la mia famiglia ne è rimasta molto colpita. Tra i migliori ristoranti nella mia lista personale.

(Translated by Google) The castle was not open to visitors, guided tours are available on special occasions, follow on Facebook, I had lunch at the castle restaurant, everything was very good, with good prices and helpful staff and fast service (Original) Il castello non era visitabile, si fanno visite guidate in occasioni particolari, seguire su Facebook, ho pranzato al ristorante del castello, tutto molto buono, con prezzi buoni e personale disponibile e servizio veloce

(Translated by Google) Castle of medieval origins made famous by Baldaccio Bruni, a fifteenth-century fighter. The castle is normally closed to the public and is currently privately owned but on some days of the year or during events it is possible to visit it with a guide. The history and the areas that can be visited are very interesting. (Original) Castello di origine medievale reso famoso da Baldaccio Bruni, combattente quattrocentesco. Di norma il castello è chiuso al pubblico e attualmente è di proprietà privata ma in alcuni giorni dell'anno o in occasione di eventi è possibile visitarlo con una guida. Molto interessante la storia e le aree visitabili.

(Translated by Google) Had dinner here last night. They didn't answer when we called for the reservation but when we got there they gave us a table inside. We ate an excellent "peposo del castello", roast cooked in red wine, a mediocre grill, on their menu "la toscanaccia" with roasted potatoes and a good caponata and the children had fettuccine with ragù, a dish, generous portion for two House wine, water and to finish Exquisite cantucci and vin santo. Average price, Service to improve but maybe because last night there were a lot of guests (Original) Cenato qui ieri sera. Non hanno risposto quando abbiamo chiamato per la prenotazione ma arrivati sul posto ci hanno dato un tavolo all'interno. Mangiato un ottimo "peposo del castello", arrosto cotto nel vino rosso, una mediocre grigliata, nel loro menù "la toscanaccia" con contorni di patate arrosto e una buona caponata e i bambini delle fettuccine al ragù, un piatto, porzione abbondante in due Vino della casa, acqua e per concludere Squisiti cantucci e vin santo. Prezzo nella media, Servizio da migliorare ma forse perché ieri sera gli ospiti erano parecchi

(Translated by Google) The construction of the church is not certain, however the first document that mentions it dates back to 1105. It was the church of the Camaldolese monastery of S. Bartolomeo and constituted the first place of worship in Anghiari. Subsequently rebuilt, it was modified in 1446 creating the current asymmetrical interior. The beautiful stone facade is a bit surprising due to the presence of unusual architectural elements such as a small terrace and windows typical of homes. Even the interior, with a single nave, is particular because it is asymmetrical, meaning the presbytery is not aligned with the rest of the church. The stone altar is interesting as are two wooden sculptures, one of the Madonna with child and a Crucifix from the end of the 13th century which every year, on May 3rd, is carried in procession on the feast day of the Holy Cross. (Original) La realizzazione della chiesa non è certa però il primo documento che la cita risale al 1105. Fu la chiesa del monastero camaldolese di S. Bartolomeo e costituì il primo luogo di culto in Anghiari. Ricostruita successivamente fu modificata nel 1446 creando l’attuale interno asimmetrico. La bella facciata in pietra un po’ sorprende per la presenza di elementi architettonici inconsueti come un terrazzino e delle finestre tipiche delle abitazioni. Anche l’interno, ad unica navata, è particolare perché asimmetrico ovvero il presbiterio non è allineato con il resto della chiesa. Interessante l’altare in pietra così come due sculture lignee, una della Madonna con bambino e un Crocifisso della fine del XIII secolo che ogni anno, il 3 maggio, viene portata in processione nel giorno della festa della Santa Croce.

(Translated by Google) The Mother Church of Anghiari, small, with a single nave, asymmetrical. It preserves an important wooden Crucifix that is carried in procession on May 3rd and a wooden statue of the Madonna with child. A true jewel. (Original) La Chiesa madre di Anghiari, piccola, con un' unica navata, asimmetrica. Conserva un importante Crocifisso ligneo che viene portato in processione il 3 maggio e una statua lignea della Madonna col bambino. Un vero gioiello.

(Translated by Google) Very interesting church, wooden statue with Madonna and Child of great interest. Wooden crucifix of relief on the altar, the altar itself particular for the large stone arch and the sculptures of saints. (Original) Chiesa molto interessante, statua in legno con Madonna e Bambino di grande interesse. Crocefisso in legno di rilievo sull'altare, altare stesso particolare per il grande arco in pietra e per le sculture di santi.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful and ancient church set among the houses of the town, barely identifiable, linear facade, beautiful and decorated interior, various frescoes, worth seeing. (Original) Bella ed antica chiesa incastonata tra le case del paese, poco identificabile, facciata lineare, interno bello e decorato, vari affreschi, da vedere.

(Translated by Google) Very ancient, it dates back to 1104, perhaps the first church in Anghiari. From the outside you wouldn't even think it was a church, the interior is very particular and surprisingly asymmetrical. (Original) Molto antica, risale addirittura al 1104, forse la prima chiesa di Anghiari. Esternamente non si direbbe neanche che è una chiesa, l'interno è molto particolare e sorprendentemente asimmetrica.

My wife and I booked last minute at Il Cardo Resort as we were traveling through Tuscany. This was a hidden gem!!! Dania and Pierre are a delightful couple that own and operate the resort. Every detail has been attended to. The house and location was amazing and they made us feel very welcome and at home. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious every morning. And if you have the option, we'd highly recommend dinner at the resort. I literally have nothing negative to say about this place or the hosts. 5-stars all around!

We had the most amazing few days at Il Cordo in beautiful Anghiari - wish we had booked more days there! We were met by the lovely host Pierre, who was so kind to serve us a late lunch after a long drive. Both hosts were very helpfull with local tips and bike routes in the area, and always ready to help with everything you might need. The property is stunning, set in the most beautiful nature, but still walking distance to the very picturesque town Anghiari with restaurants, bars and of course gellato. Lovely room that stayed cool even though the temperature stayed above 30 degrees, and the pool area had plenty of shady spots so it was still possible to stay outside in the heat. We are already very excited to come back and have more time for all the different activities the property and the surrounding nature has to offer.

We felt like home at Il Cardo Resort and this says a lot. The room were very clean, the home-made breakfast was incredible tasty and the location was very quiet. The landlord was very nice and helpful.

The Il Cardo Resort is a very lovely and beautiful resort. The food they serve is always fresh and organic. Mostly they use vegetables and herbs from their own garden. They really take care of our environment. Dania and her husband are very kind and friendly. I can highly recommend this resort!

Amazing place, we had a lovely stay! Everyone was so friendly, the food was delightful and the views were stunning. I would highly recommend this place for a relaxing time away to enjoy the peaceful Tuscan scenery.

Amazing place, a real hidden gem in the middle of nature yet close to lovely town of Anghiari and other nice places to visit. Delicious meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and lovely people. Definitely recommended en definitely coming back!

We had a most relaxing time in this beautiful location. Friendly helpful staff, great food and refreshing swimming pool all set in a lovely peaceful location.

It all came about, thanks to Chiara from Bed & Breakfast il Poggiolo. We managed to organize a dinner for 60 people, all here in the area for the aforementioned Rally. Cristina was immediately available to find the best possible solution in terms of arranging the tables in the rooms, reception and menus. Our intention was to do something simple but to all be together to share our passion. It turned out to be a wonderful evening that left everyone happy.

(Translated by Google) The countryside of the Tiber Valley is full of parish churches, abbeys and chapels. Some of these are very old. That of Santa Maria a Micciano is documented since 1080, which then entered the orbit of the Camaldolese from 1104 to 1198. In 1880 the building underwent a radical transformation with the transformation of the main body into a single nave. The building is located between Anghiari and its hamlet Motina and can be recognized even from a distance, even from the top of Montedoglio. (Original) Le campagne della Valtiberina sono piene di pievi, abbazie e cappelle. Alcune di queste sono molto antiche. Quella di Santa Maria a Micciano è documentata fin dal 1080, entrata poi nell'orbita dei Camaldolesi dal 1104 al 1198. Nel 1880 l'edificio subì un radicale con la trasformazione del corpo principale in un'unica navata. L'edificio si trova tra Anghiari e la sua frazione Motina e si riconosce anche da distante, pure dalla cima di Montedoglio.

(Translated by Google) A place of worship since time immemorial, it was the first parish church in Anghiari. Originally composed of three naves, it owes its current shape following important renovation works in the early 1900s. Inside it preserves the "Pietà" by Vetturino Venturi. (Original) Da tempo immemore luogo di culto, fu la prima pieve di Anghiari. Originariamente composta da tre navate, deve la sua conformazione attuale a seguito di importanti lavori di ristrutturazione dei primi anni del 900.

Menu was pre-fixe, including antipasti platters, pastas (meat and veggie), breads, platters of grilled meats and dessert! Wine, beers and beverages included. The location is a little out of the way but so with the trip! Highly recommend!!!

(Translated by Google) The most beautiful church in Anghiari greatly embellished by Florentine artists with works such as the last supper and the washing of the feet by Sogliani and the deposition by Puligo. Pretty (Original) La più bella chiesa di Anghiari impreziosita enormemente da artisti Fiorentini con opere come l'ultima cene e la lavanda dei piedi del Sogliani e la deposizione del Puligo. Bella

(Translated by Google) A last supper and a foot washing of great interest. Christ and Peter can be recognized with the same clothes and appearance, even if the two works were carried out 5 years apart from each other. Altar by Della Robbia, with a recent outdoor copy nearby. (Original) Un'ultima cena e un lavaggio dei piedi di grande interesse. Si riconoscono Cristo e Pietro con le stesse vesti e sembianze, pure se i due lavori sono stati eseguiti a distanza di 5 anni l'uno dall'altro.

(Translated by Google) As we enter the Chiesa di Santa Maria delle Grazie in Anghiari, we immediately feel the deep historical and spiritual value of this place. The church, also known as Propositura Insigne, stands proudly in this medieval town, whose rich history is reflected in every stone and every alley. From the outside we are impressed by the simple yet elegant appearance of the facade, which is typical of Renaissance churches. As you enter the church, the atmosphere becomes calmer and more sublime. The high ceilings and ornate walls draw our eyes upward as we admire the beauty of the frescoes and altars. This church was built in the 15th century and is considered a significant example of Renaissance architecture in Tuscany. It was originally built to house a miraculous image of the Virgin Mary, which is particularly revered by believers in the region. In the middle of the main altar is the valuable image of the Madonna delle Grazie, which is considered the sacred center of the church. We feel the long tradition of faith that radiates from this place and can well imagine how generations of believers came here to seek comfort and help. What is particularly impressive is the connection between art and religious devotion, which is reflected in the church's furnishings. Around the main altar and in the side aisles we see several beautiful paintings and sculptures depicting various religious scenes. These works of art come from different eras and add to the sublime atmosphere. We also notice the special silence that fills the room and we sense that this is a place of contemplation and prayer. The history of the church is closely linked to that of Anghiari, a town known for its strategic location and the famous Battle of Anghiari in 1440. This battle, which took place nearby, was an important moment in Tuscan history and was even immortalized in a lost painting by Leonardo da Vinci. In this church, art, history and spirituality combine in a unique way. We feel deeply touched by the atmosphere in the Chiesa di Santa Maria delle Grazie. It is not only a place of faith, but also a living monument of Tuscan art and culture. As of: September 25, 2024 *Many people know that they are unhappy. But even more people don't know that they are happy.* (Original) Als wir die Chiesa di Santa Maria delle Grazie in Anghiari betreten, spüren wir sofort den tiefen historischen und spirituellen Wert dieses Ortes. Die Kirche, auch bekannt als Propositura Insigne, erhebt sich stolz in dieser mittelalterlichen Stadt, deren reiche Geschichte sich in jedem Stein und jeder Gasse widerspiegelt. Schon von außen beeindruckt uns das schlichte, aber dennoch elegante Erscheinungsbild der Fassade, die typisch für die Kirchen der Renaissance ist. Beim Betreten des Gotteshauses wird die Atmosphäre ruhiger und erhabener. Die hohen Decken und kunstvoll verzierten Wände ziehen unsere Blicke nach oben, während wir die Schönheit der Fresken und Altäre bewundern. Diese Kirche wurde im 15. Jahrhundert erbaut und gilt als ein bedeutendes Beispiel für die Renaissance-Architektur in der Toskana. Sie wurde ursprünglich errichtet, um ein wundertätiges Marienbild zu beherbergen, das von den Gläubigen in der Region besonders verehrt wird. In der Mitte des Hauptaltars steht das wertvolle Bildnis der Madonna delle Grazie, das als heiliger Mittelpunkt des Gotteshauses gilt. Wir spüren die lange Tradition des Glaubens, die dieser Ort ausstrahlt, und können uns gut vorstellen, wie Generationen von Gläubigen hierher kamen, um Trost und Hilfe zu suchen. Besonders beeindruckend ist die Verbindung zwischen der Kunst und der religiösen Hingabe, die sich in der Ausstattung der Kirche widerspiegelt. Rund um den Hauptaltar und in den Seitenschiffen sehen wir mehrere wunderschöne Gemälde und Skulpturen, die verschiedene religiöse Szenen darstellen. Diese Kunstwerke stammen aus verschiedenen Epochen und tragen zu der erhabenen Atmosphäre bei. Uns fällt auch die besondere Stille auf, die den Raum erfüllt, und wir spüren, dass dies ein Ort der Einkehr und des Gebets ist. Die Geschichte der Kirche ist eng mit der von Anghiari verbunden, einer Stadt, die für ihre strategische Lage und die berühmte Schlacht von Anghiari im Jahr 1440 bekannt ist. Diese Schlacht, die in der Nähe stattfand, war ein wichtiger Moment in der Geschichte der Toskana und wurde sogar von Leonardo da Vinci in einem verlorenen Gemälde verewigt. In dieser Kirche verbinden sich somit Kunst, Geschichte und Spiritualität auf einzigartige Weise. Wir fühlen uns tief berührt von der Atmosphäre in der Chiesa di Santa Maria delle Grazie. Sie ist nicht nur ein Ort des Glaubens, sondern auch ein lebendiges Denkmal der toskanischen Kunst und Kultur. Stand : 25.09.2024 *Viele Menschen wissen, dass sie unglücklich sind. Aber noch mehr Menschen wissen nicht, dass sie glücklich sind.*

(Translated by Google) Cycling along the road that leads to Galbino, dirt and slightly uphill, you would never expect to find yourself in front of such a beautiful Castle. Immersed in a still uncontaminated nature and centuries-old plants, it is impossible not to be enveloped by the peace and serenity of the place!!!. Galbino is also one of the most popular refreshment points during the vintage cycling tour "l'intrepida" which takes place on the third Sunday of October.

Galbino è anche uno dei ristori più graditi durante la cicloturistica d'epoca " l'intrepida" che si svolge la terza domenica di Ottobre.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful historic village on the border between Tuscany and Umbria. The town is famous for the battle of Anghiari in 1440 fought between Milan and Florence and painted several times (also by Leonardo). The town is quite large and is perched on a hill. There is a road (called the stradone) that divides the town in two, the newer part and the old one. The lanes, the squares, the houses are beautiful. Characteristic walls with a beautiful walk all around. From the various viewpoints there are beautiful views of the plain and the surrounding mountains. There are several places to eat or have a drink. Despite being very touristy, it is not overrun by people (except obviously for parties) and is therefore liveable and quiet. Truly one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. (Original) Bellissimo borgo storico al confine tra Toscana ed Umbria. Il paese è famoso per la battaglia di Anghiari del 1440 combattuta tra Milano e Firenze e più volte dipinta (anche da Leonardo). Il paese è abbastanza grande ed è arroccato su una collina. C'è una strada (detto lo stradone) che divide in due il paese, la parte più nuova e quella vecchia. Bellissimi sono i viottoli, le piazzette, le case. Caratteristiche le mura con una bella passeggiata tutto intorno. Dai vari belvedere ci sono bellissimi scorci sulla piana e sulle montagne circostanti. Ci sono diversi locali dove mangiare o fare aperitivo. Nonostante sia molto turistico non è comunque preso d'assalto dalle persone (tranne ovviamente le feste) ed è quindi vivibile e tranquillo. Veramente uno dei più belli borghi di Italia.

(Translated by Google) The church is very beautiful and evocative, however getting up there by car is complicated, furthermore the church is located within a private property where horses graze and it is certainly not accessible to everyone.

(Translated by Google) The parish church of Santa Maria a Corsano is an ancient Romanesque church from the 12th century, probably built by the Camaldolese on the remains of a pagan temple. Its architecture is particularly interesting, with a small bell tower leaning against the façade, opened by two orders of mullioned windows and with the entrance portal at the base. Confiscated in 1866 and sold to private individuals, it was used as an agricultural warehouse until the restoration in 1954. Currently in a state of total abandonment and ruin. (Original) La pieve di Santa Maria a Corsano è un’antica chiesa romanica del XII secolo, probabilmente edificata dai Camaldolesi sui resti di un tempio pagano. Particolarmente interessante è la sua architettura, con una piccola torre campanaria addossata alla facciata, aperta da due ordini di bifore e con il portale d’ingresso alla base. Confiscata nel 1866 e venduta a privati, fu usata come magazzino agricolo fino al restauro del 1954. Attualmente in stato di totale abbandono e rovina.
