"Ancient agriturismo on a busy working wine estate, the Villa Vignamaggio is reputedly the birthplace of Mona Lisa."
The Villa of Vignamaggio, surrounded by an elegant Italian garden in a stunningly beautiful corner of the Chianti countryside, offers an authentic testimony of countrylife during the Renaissance period. The main part of the villa dates back to the 14th century.
The Gherardi family who bought the villa from the Gherardini at the end of the 16th-century, were responsible for its present appearance.
Inside the Renaissance Villa, listed in the "Historical Building of Italy" we offer double bedrooms and romantic suites with antique furniture and bed linen made exclusively for Vignamaggio.
For all our guests the billiard room and a large drawing room for reading and relaxing are available on the first floor.
