Town of Manciano
The town rises on the top of a hill
open to the four winds, with a breathtaking view in all directions: from
the Amiata to the Fiora valley, from Talamone to the beaches of Montalto
di Castro, from the Argentario to the Islands of Giglio and Montecristo.
It is a mysterious and enchanted spot. It’s not by accident that it is
remembered with the saying, “Manciano delle streghe, dove si va si
vede”, “Manciano, home of witches, wherever you look, you see them”.
It was settled in
prehistoric times as demonstrated by the archeological findings near
Saturnia, Marsiliana and Poggio Murella. It was ruled in the 12th
century by the Aldobrandeschi family and then later by the Orsini Counts
from Rome. However, its geographical postion and solid walls didn’t
prevent its being conquered in 1461 by the Sienese Repubblic which then
built a fortress overlooking the vast panorama. The area of Manciano is
considered one of the most irresistible in the Maremma. Visting is made
easy by a network of roads and paths for walking, trekking,
mountain-biking or horseback riding. Montemerano is close to Manciano
and is well worth a stop. It is an authentic Medieval gem, built on a
hill covered in age-old olive trees. Another spot of interest is
Saturnia, considered by some to be the craddle of Italian civilization,
with an Etruscan, Roman and Medieval past. However, even more than its
history, it is known for its hot sulfur springs, which gush forth all
year at a temperature of 37.5°
.

The Fortress
of origin Aldobrandesca dominates the old suburb and allows to see the
follow him of necks and pianori up to the sea. And here the eyes can be
delighted observing the coast of Grosseto, that goes down sweet and
sinuous up to the promontory of the Argentario. There behind clear and
perfect the island of the Lily, and down the lagoon of Orbetello. But you/he/she
is not ended because from here it is possible to also see the Amiata and
the mountains that surround him/it.

Between
Saturnia and Manciano is Montemerano, a tiny medieval hill town which you
can see directly across the terrace from our house. (At night, it appears
to have a small necklace of lights around its base.) The picturesque
little houses and tiny passageways of the old section of town are colorful,
very charming and are often rented or owned by city-dwellers and used as
country getaways.This little town is the most typical of the
mediaeval towns in the Albegna Valley, placed in a dominant position,
immersed among the hills of olive groves.
A tour of this tiny town, encircled by the walls
and blessed with a particular charm with its narrow streets that
criss-cross as they lead to the different little squares and to the top
part of the town where the lovely castle square lies, starts at the
ancient gates that lead to the squares. From the roofs rises a 3rd century
tower while the houses are mostly 5th century A.D.
