Wonderful castle with a magnificent tower built on the model of the one of Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. The original structure of this castle dates back to the 12th century; in the 17th century it was transformed into a beautiful villa by the noble family of Acciaioli, who made Montegfuoni castle their summer residence. At the beginning of the 20th century, the English noble family of the Sitwell acquired the castle and restored it to its past beauty and charm. Over the many events passing in Montegufoni, the castle during World War 2 became a deposit for the Uffizi masterpieces. Finally in 1972, the Posarelli family bought the castle and lately they opened it to tourists from all over the world that can enjoy its beauty, history and its art. The castle is part of a large estate producing Chianti wine and olive oil.
