Villa La Curia is located in the small village of Curiano between Monteroni d’Arbia and Buonconvento on the Via Cassia. Its origins are very ancient as various testify notarial deeds dating back to 1079.
In a document from 1290, a spring on top of the ‘Curliano’ coast is mentioned, to be restored with stones and bricks, testimony of Curiano’s “post office” role as a refreshment point along the Francigena, the ancient road that connected central Europe to Rome in the Middle Ages.
In the mid-fourteenth century the presence of a ‘hospital’ is witnessed, donated with various fields and vineyards to the Dominican Fathers of Siena. The hospital was a refuge to welcome the poor, pilgrims and the religious ‘of any order’ who came along the path that led from Canterbury through France to Rome.
Sold by the Dominican Fathers in the mid-1600s, with the obligation that it be left there Hospital to welcome the poor and pilgrims, Curiano then passed over the centuries from the property of the Nini and Bandinelli, from the Sergardi to the Mocenni, at the beginning of the twentieth century.
