Il territorio comunale di Radda in Chianti si estende per tutta l’alta valle del fiume Pesa in mezzo ai bellissimi boschi chiantigiani. A Paterno, Lo Smorto, La Petraia e negli immediati dintorni di Radda sono state rinvenute tracce di centri abitati. Ma \u00e8 sopratutto sul Poggio di Cetamura che sono stati scoperti i resti di quello che fu probabilmente il pi\u00f9 importante insediamento etrusco-romano del Chianti, che si trovava al centro di una vera e propria rete viaria collegata con tutti i pi\u00f9 importanti comuni delle zone limitrofe.<\/p>\n
Fu nel Medioevo che Radda si popol\u00f2 di importanti castelli. Nel 1201 il comune fiorentino che controllava gi\u00e0 tutta la regione, riun\u00ec la popolazione del Chianti in una “Lega”; vi erano Radda, Castellina e Gaiole. Nel paese sono presenti ancora oggi molti edifici medievali. Lungo la cinta muraria si trovano torri di difesa. Nei punti di accesso si aprivano le porte. Un cassero completava le fortificazioni. Delle opere di difesa rimangono solo poche tracce. Di notevole interesse \u00e9 la Pieve di Santa Maria Novella, un tempo la pi\u00f9 ricca ed importante del Chianti; numerose sono le sue opere d’arte fra le quali: una croce astile in bronzo dorato (XII-XIII secolo), una fonte battesimale a forma esagonale, nonch\u00e9 una ricca dotazione di vesti, suppellettili ed arredi sacri.<\/p>\n
Numerose altre chiese sono presenti nel territorio, come quella di San Fedele a Paterno, quella parrocchiale di Radda e il Convento francescano di Santa Maria. Nella cittadina si conservano numerosi palazzi cinquecenteschi.<\/p>\n","modified":"2018-03-26T14:03:48","color":"","icon":"","noDetails":false,"noInteraction":false,"taxonomy":{"webmapp_category":[13]},"accessibility":{"mobility":{"check":false,"description":""},"hearing":{"check":false,"description":""},"vision":{"check":false,"description":""},"cognitive":{"check":false,"description":""},"food":{"check":false,"description":""}},"locale":"it","source":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/1215","wp_edit":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=1215&action=edit","translations":{"en":{"id":10672,"name":"Radda","web":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/\/radda\/?lang=en","source":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/10672","description":"
The Communal territory of Radda in Chianti takes over the whole of the upper Pesa valley, among the beautiful Chianti woods. The whole of this area was populated by the Etruscans and Romans. Traces of inhabited centers have been found at Paterno, Lo Smorto, La Petraia and in the immediate vicinity of Radda.<\/p>\n
The remains of what was probably the most important Etruscan-Roman settlement have been discovered up on the Poggio of Cetamura, situated in the centre of a road system that was connected with all the most important towns nearby. It was in the Middle Ages that Radda saw the construction of important castles. In 1201, the Florentine Commune, which already controlled the whole region, organized the Chianti population into “Leagues”. Radda still conserves many medieval buildings, as well as several defence towers set into the boundary walls. Gates of access led into the city and a Cassero (castle) completed the fortifications. Few of these fortifications still remain today. The Pieve of Santa Maria Novella is of particular interest and was once considered one of the most important and wealthy parish churches in the Chianti area. It contains several works of art, including a processional cross in gilded bronze (XII-XIII century), an hexagonal-shaped baptismal font, a rich collection of vestments and church furnishings.<\/p>\n
There are many other churches in this area, such as San Fedele a Paterno, the Radda parish church and the Franciscan Convent of Santa Maria. There are also some beautiful palaces of the XVI century in this town.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n"},"fr":{"id":27704,"name":"Radda","web":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/\/radda\/?lang=fr","source":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/27704","description":"

Di antica origine, il Palagio a Maiano fu completamente distrutto da un violento uragano nel 1467 tanto che il proprietario Bartolomeo degli Alessandri, per far fronte ai grossi debiti contratti mise in vendita l’ampio podere. Passato di propriet\u00e0 nella prima met\u00e0 del XVI secolo agli Sforza e in seguito a Buonagrazia, nel 1546 fu acquistato dalla nobile famiglia dei Pazzi. l XVIII secolo estinto il ramo della nobile famiglia con la morte di Luigi Cosimo Pazzi, la villa pass\u00f2 ai Gucci Tolomei, commercianti tessili di origine senese per essere poi acquistata nel 1850 da John Temple Leader che la compr\u00f2 a cancello chiuso, cio\u00e8 con tutto ci\u00f2 che era contenuto nella storica residenza.<\/p>\n
Eletta come abitazione e centro dei suoi affari, la Villa di Maiano, visibile sulla collina a Sx divenne la prima tappa di quei lunghi e complessi lavori di restauro che il ricco e stravagante uomo politico inglese estender\u00e0 a tutto il paesaggio circostante ed al vicino castello di Vincigliata. Temple Leader voleva infatti costituire un suo fantastico feudo caratterizzato da maestosi dettagli architettonici, scultorei e paesaggistici ispirati al Medioevo e al Rinascimento secondo quella rivisitazione tipica degli inizi dell’Ottocento.<\/p>\n
Con la supervisione del Leader, l’architetto Felice Francolini venne incaricato della totale ristrutturazione nel pieno rispetto della linea quattrocentesca dell’edificio. Alla Villa fu aggiunto un piano ed una torre goticheggiante con loggia che ben riflette il gusto per l’architettura medioevale. All’interno ed in corrispondenza della torre, l’architetto Francolini trasform\u00f2 il cortile centrale in un’ampia sala da ballo in stile neorinascimentale. Alla morte del Leader nel 1903, tutte le sue propriet\u00e0 passarono al pronipote Richard Bethell Lord Westbury il quale vendette la villa al professor Teodoro Stori celebre chirurgo e marito di Elisabetta Corsini che con amore e passione per il mantenimento della storica residenza, la trasmise in eredit\u00e0 all’attuale proprietaria, la contessa Lucrezia Miari Fulcis dei Principi Corsini.<\/p>\n","modified":"2018-03-26T11:02:10","color":"","icon":"","noDetails":false,"noInteraction":false,"taxonomy":{"webmapp_category":[13]},"accessibility":{"mobility":{"check":false,"description":""},"hearing":{"check":false,"description":""},"vision":{"check":false,"description":""},"cognitive":{"check":false,"description":""},"food":{"check":false,"description":""}},"locale":"it","source":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/1160","wp_edit":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=1160&action=edit","translations":{"en":{"id":10532,"name":"Villa of Majano","web":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/\/chiesa-maiano\/?lang=en","source":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/10532","description":"
Of antique origins, the Palagio a Maiano was totally destroyed by a violent storm in 1467, leading the owner Bartolomeo degli Alessandri to sell the estate in order to face the debts accumulated. During the first half of the XVIth century the estate became property of the Sforza family, then the Buonagrazia family. In 1546, it was bought by the noble family Pazzi. In the XVIIth century, at the extinction of this family with the death of Luigi Cosimo Pazzi, the villa went to the Gucci Tolomei, a family of textile traders from Siena, and then bought in 1850 by Sir John Temple Leader with everything contained inside the historical residence.<\/p>\n
Chosen as a main residence both for private and professional use, Villa Majano became the first stage of long and complex restoration works that the rich and extravagant English Lord will extend to the whole surrounding landscape as well as to the near Castle of Vincigliata. Temple Leader in fact wanted to build his own fantastic fief, characterised by majestic details in architecture, sculpture and landscape, inspired to the Middle Ages and to the Renaissance and following a reinterpretation typical of the beginning of the XIXth century. The Architect Felice Francolini is given the responsibility, under Temple Leader\u2019s supervision, to restore the building entirely in total respect of the original XVth century style.<\/p>\n
A new floor is raised and a gothic-influenced tower as well and a loggia, reflecting the taste for medieval architecture, are added. Inside, in coincidence with the tower, the Architect Francolini converts the central patio into a wide ballroom in neo renaissance style. At the death of Temple Leader in 1903, all his properties went to his grandnephew Richard Bethell Lord Westbury, who sold the villa to the illustrious surgeon of Florence, Prof. Teodoro Stori, who, with his wife Elisabetta Corsini, continued with love and dedication the works of Sir Temple, and gave it in heritage to the present owner, Countess Lucrezia Miari Fulcis dei Principi Corsini.<\/p>\n"},"fr":{"id":29237,"name":"Villa di Maiano","web":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/\/villa-di-maiano\/?lang=fr","source":"http:\/\/vn.be.webmapp.it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/29237","description":"

But in I century B.C. things have changed: the decline of Fiesole began and the flourishing of Florence started.<\/p>\n The centre of Fiesole is Square Mino da Fiesole, surrounded by the imposing Romanic cathedral, Palazzo Altoviti (today site of the bishop\u2019s seminary) and the Town Hall. On one side of the main square, at the end of a short but steep ascent, you find the Church of San Francesco. Still in the surroundings of the Square Mino, but in the northern direction, you find the entrance to the Roman Theatre. Beside it, there are the ruins of a necropolis, of roman thermal baths and a few other buildings of late imperial age. The Theatre is still used today and hosts a theatre and musical summer season called Estate Fiesolana<\/p>\n A few meters from the Roman Theatre there is the entrance to the Bandini Museum where you can see a large collection of ceramics by Della Robbia.
