Love at First Sight
It is in the 17th century the last record of the watchtower which was previously located here – as part of the commanding position of observation above the valley. After the partial destruction of the medieval tower in the aftermath of a battle, the structure was converted in to a convent which was later abandoned.
In the 19th century it became a private residence and the owner commissioned the construction of a second building to give as a gift to the woman he loved. At the end of the 20th century the property passed to the family Benini Galeffi, the current owners, who recently converted the two ruined structures into a high quality experience Relais.
