Castello del Calcione stands within a large estate on the outskirts of the Lucignano territory. Here the better-known Valdichiana, made of villages and squares, gives way to a private and silent landscape of woods, cultivated land and water.
A residence within the landscape
The history of the complex is tied to the agricultural and noble management of the estate. The castle does not dominate a town: it lives in relation to the countryside around it, as the focal point of an extensive territory. Precisely this secluded position accentuates its romantic and almost suspended character.
The most secret side of Lucignano
Il Calcione shows a less urban face of the Valdichiana. Visiting and experiencing the complex depend on the property's access arrangements, but the place remains an important presence in the Lucignano landscape. It is the kind of castle discovered slowly, following secondary roads and the profiles of trees.
