House of Machiavelli

Machiavelli's house is a museum estate in San Casciano in Val di Pesa where visitors find rooms displaying personal belongings and written documents from the Renaissance period. The spaces reveal how the political thinker lived and worked during his years in this location.

The writer produced his most influential works including 'The Prince' after stepping away from active political service in Florence. This location became central to the development of modern political theory during the Renaissance period.

The estate serves as headquarters for regional wine associations, linking the property to the area's wine production tradition. Visitors experience how this place bridges historical significance with contemporary agricultural heritage.

Tours are available on specific weekdays and the property is located in a rural area outside the main town. Plan ahead to confirm access to different areas and arrange transportation to this countryside location.

A restaurant within the building serves traditional Tuscan food in the same rooms where the thinker developed his theories. Visitors can dine while experiencing the historical setting where these ideas took shape.
