Castelnuovo Berardenga, Medieval commune in Province of Siena, Italy.
Located in southern Tuscany at 351 meters elevation, Castelnuovo Berardenga extends across 177 square kilometers of hills and plains near the Ombrone River.
The settlement originated in 1366 when Siena constructed a fortress as the administrative center for the Berardenga territory, named after Count Berardo's noble family.
The annual Grape Festival in September transforms the streets with traditional parades, wine tastings, and exhibitions of regional agricultural products.
The commune includes multiple accommodations, restaurants, and wineries, with convenient access through the Siena-Bettolle road network and local provincial routes.
The territory contains the battlefield of Montaperti where Siena's forces achieved a decisive victory against Florence in 1260, marking a significant moment in Tuscan history.
