Villa La Quiete

The villa stands at the foot of Monte Morello, featuring an Italian garden and religious architectural elements including the Church of Montalve.

Originally known as Palagio of Quarto, the villa passed from the Orlandini family to Niccolò da Tolentino in 1438 before becoming Medici property.

The name originates from Giovanni da San Giovanni's 1632 fresco 'La Quiete che domina i venti' depicting the dominance of tranquility over winds.

Visitors can access the villa through guided tours every Tuesday and Thursday at 17:30, with advance reservations required and an entrance fee of 5 euros.

Anna Maria Luisa de Medici, the last Medici descendant, transformed the property into her residence in 1724, adding substantial artistic collections.
