Villa del Trebbio, Medieval villa in Scarperia e San Piero, Italy
The Villa del Trebbio stands on a hilltop at 500 meters above sea level, featuring a central tower, fortified walls, and external walkways overlooking the Mugello region.
Giovanni di Bicci de Medici commissioned architect Michelozzo to transform the existing structure into a fortified residence during the early fifteenth century.
The villa represents the architectural transition from medieval defensive structures to Renaissance country residences, incorporating both military and residential elements.
The property currently operates as a private vineyard, offering wine tasting sessions and guided tours in English and Italian by advance reservation.
Explorer Amerigo Vespucci sought refuge at Villa del Trebbio during the summer of 1476 to escape the plague affecting Florence.
