The Valdichiana was inhabited since prehistoric times and at the foot of Mount Cetona in the woods of Belvedere today you can see the reconstruction of a Bronze Age village, among the caves inhabited more than fifty thousand years ago. The famous Labyrinth of Porsenna in Chiusi dates back to the Etruscan period: the Etruscan king Porsenna who managed to defeat Rome was buried according to the legends in a mausoleum surrounded by a labyrinth, but while a labyrinth can be visited today there is no trace of the king and his treasure. The catacombs of St. Catherine and St. Mustiola and the Roman aqueduct of Porta Montanina in Cortona demonstrate the importance of the rule of the Roman Empire in the territory. The numerous fortified villages, castles and defense towers are evidence of the medieval period while reaching out to the sixteenth century with the power of the Medici and the artist Poliziano. With the domination of Florence and the pontifical rule began the works of land reclamation.

As the name of this valley, we are in the land of the famous Chianina beef that together with a good wine, maybe a Nobile di Montepulciano, is the essential ingredient of a nice lunch in the garden of your farmhouse in Valdichiana or the best choice in one of the many local restaurants. To dress it we suggest a drop of extra virgin olive oil of Trequanda, then add the 'panzanella' dish, the bread soup or 'Ribollita' soup: delicious soups whose recipes date back to the rustic cooking of peasants. Do not miss the Tuscan cold meats and cheeses, such as the famous Tuscan pecorino, that here you can taste together with home-made jam or renowned Valdichiana honey.
