Our agency has selected for you the best villas for vacation rentals in the most beautiful areas in Tuscany. Below, our offer for villas in Fucecchio in Lower Valdarno. If you love nature, medieval towns and you want to spend your vacations a few kilometers from Florence in absolute privacy and freedom don’t hesitate to choose one of the Villas in Fucecchio that we offer on this page.
Fucecchio is located in the province of Florence and it is characterized by a
nice historic centre with a fortress built in 1322. We suggest you to climb up the `torre di mezzo`, one of the towers of the castle to be able to admire a wonderful panoramic view on the surrounding territory.
Among the churches in Fucecchio, the Collegiate Church San Giovanni Battista is really worth a visit. It can be reached both from the Poggio Salamartano and from Piazza Vittorio Veneto climbing the stone stairs. Inside, you can admire the `Madonna di Piazza`, a marble statue that, accoding to the legends, protected the town from the plague in 1630.
The Church San Salvatore dates back to the 10th century and still keeps its medieval aspect. Inside the church, there are several works of art in marble and a 16th century-wooden crucifix.
Do not miss a visit to the
Padule di Fucecchio, a 1800 hectare- lake basin between Florence and Pistoia with two natural reserves: `Le Morette` and `La Monaca-Righetti`. Here you can see many protected species.
Among the typical products of Fucecchio, we mention coffe, the `Schiacciata di Pasqua Fucecchiese`, the `Zuccherini di Fucecchio`, the `Brutto buono ai pinoli`, the Bread Soup of Fucecchio and chicken livers. The territory is also important for caning chairs and flasks.
Among the events in Fucecchio we would like to remind you the Palio di Fucecchio in May with an historic parade and the horse race among the 12 town districts. Then, at the end of June and the beginning of July the Festival Marea takes place with national and international artists, sport events and regional cuisine.
