Treasure Hunting in Tuscany

A group of archaeologists from the University of Siena made an incredible discovery one hundred meters from our hotel in Tuscany: "The fibula from Montieri" - A golden brooch from the Middle Ages!

The precious jewel of solid gold was found in the Rectory of St. Nicholas, the mysterious church in the shape of flower just above our Hotel Prategiano. From a time immemorial, "Prategiano" – translation: meadow of the god Janus - has been a spiritual place. The more the excavations advanced at the "Canonica di San Nicolo", the more the importance of this magical place was confirmed. The symbolism surrounding the jewel indicates that this spiritual place place was one of the most important religious places of worship in medieval Europe.

Come and spend a few days at Prategiano, immersing yourself in the mysticism of the past centuries. A walk to the ancient church, or to the top the Poggio of Montieri will be enough to sharpen your senses and see modern life in a different light. We start the season April 24th, and are looking forward to a summer full of new emotions, beautiful walking tours in Tuscany, splendid cycling holidays, fantastic trail rides, and countless new experiences to share. See you there in Maremma Toscana, Italy!
