The Tuscany / Siena Province region

Tuscany (Italian: Toscana) is a region in Italy. It has an area of 22,990 square kilometres (8,880 sq mi) and a population of about 3.6 million inhabitants. The regional capital is Florence.

Tuscany is known for its landscapes and its artistic legacy. Six Tuscan localities have been UNESCO protected sites: the historical centre of Florence (1982), the historical centre of Siena (1995), the square of the Cathedral of Pisa (1987), the historical centre of San Gimignano (1990), the historical centre of Pienza (1996) and the Val d'Orcia (2004).

The Cetona area

A vacation in Cetona usually means rest and tranquillity in a picturesque landscape. But there is a lot to do in and around the immediate area.

Only a short drive away, art lovers will find some of the most exceptional gallery and museums in the world. In the nearby towns of Chiusi, Montepulciano, Pienza, Cortona, Perugia, Arezzo, Orvieto and Siena, history has left treasures from the time of Etruscans to the Reanaissance. And don't forget that from Cetona you can easily reach, by motorway in about an hour time, even Florence and Rome.

Hikers, Riders, Biciclists and Nature lovers will find foot-paths and country roads that wind through hillsides and vineyards where they will discover hidden corners and breathtaking views. If it's sports you're after there are sporting facilities in Cetona and surroundings.

Nearby, Trasimeno Lake offers a variety of water sports and at San Casciano, Bagno Vignoni and San Filippo you can take teraupetic baths in the natural hot water springs.
On the cultural side, every summer Cetona hosts a numer of conferences and seminars in archaelogy, medicine or art and organizes exibition of local handicrafts and artists.

Walking in this lovely town, the visitors can admire the medieval fortress, the Collegiate church of the XIII century and the churches of S.S. Annunziata and S.Michele, enjoying the fresh air of this place which smells of ancient and magic, an atmosphere which nowadays is more and more difficult to find.

South of Siena, few Kms far from Valdorcia, Montepulciano, Pienza, Montalcino, Trasimeno Lake; we are near thermal water baths such as S. Casciano Dei Bagni, Bagno Vignoni, Bagni S. Filippo.

In the town of Cetona the old and the new mingle together in an unequalled harmony, and you can’t do without being fascinated and loving it.

The first mention of Cetona is found as a "Castle" between 1207 and 1241 in the estate of Count Ildebrandino, but subject to the sovreignty of the Commune of Orvieto. Around the Castle, known locally as the "Rocca", a village developed, a typical medieval agglomeration of houses and dwellings built in a spiral on the steep slopes of the hills.

In the area around Cetona one of the oldest human settlements of central Italy has been discovered which goes back 40.000 years and the remains of which can be seen in the delightful archeological park of Belverde and the 25 prehistoric caves which are today lit by power comming from modern and ecologically friendly solar panels. The finds are conserved in the museum devoted to the prehistoric period of Mount Cetona located on the ground floor of the Town Hall, a museum which the experts have defined as "didactically perfect".

This ancient community is at the same time a lively centre of contemporary life and has become, since the 1960s, a haunt of "VIPs" who have bought and renovated farm properties.

The Sienese nobility remained until the end of the Republic (mid-16th century) when the Grand Duke Cosimo I of the Medici conceded Cetona to the Marquis Chiappino Vitelli who trasformed the fortess into a residence and built the large town square (Piazza Garibaldi) where Palazzo Vitelli can still be seen. In 1772 Cetona became a Commune linked to Sarteano until 1840. Today Cetona has 3,000 inhabitants and covers 53 sq km including Mount Cetona, known in former times as "Monte Piesi" (1,148 m.), and the hills which slope down towards the flat bottom of the Astrone valley. Other than the main town itself, starding 385 metres above sea level, the Commune includes the villages of Piazze, a recent development, and the areas of Belverde and Camporsevoli. Even if residential tourism of élite classes has brought fame to the village of Cetona, the community has retained its rural identify on which its economy is predominantly based.
