Villa Fontallerta, Renaissance villa in Florence, Italy.

The Villa Fontallerta stands amid pine trees and olive groves, with its main structure displaying architectural elements from the 14th century.

In 1506, the villa became the residence of Taddeo di Agnolo Gaddi, connecting the property to a family of notable medieval painters.

The villa appears in Giovanni Boccaccio's literary masterwork Decameron, establishing its place in Italian Renaissance literature and cultural heritage.

The Fondo Ambiente Italiano opens Villa Fontallerta to visitors during specific events, with guided tours providing access to the grounds.

The property maintains its original architectural features from six centuries ago, including detailed interior designs and surrounding gardens.
