Villa Alberto
Chianti Hills, Tuscany
Nestled in the heart of the
world-famous Chianti Valley, just thirty minutes from Florence, stands Villa Alberoi. This
graceful country residence is located near the ancient town of Castelfiorentino on the
Francigen Route, once the main thoroughfare from Rome to France. Villa Alberto is steeped
in history. Its origins date back to the early years of the 13th century when a powerful
Longobard clan from the Elsa Valley - the Conti Alberto - chose this perfect spot as the
site for their castle, later converted into the elegant villa you can see today. The Conti
Alberto family owned the property until the 17th century. Traces of the original
13th-century fort are still discernible in the square brick tower and the walls alongside
the villa.
