For your next vacations in Tuscany we suggest you choose one of our villas in Cascina in Lower Valdarno. On this page we offer you a selection of the best villas in Cascina with photos and detailed descriptions.
Cascina is located in Lower Valdarno a few kilometers from Pisa and near the highway Firenze-Pisa-Livorno. In a short time and thus you can easily reach cities such as Florence, Pisa, Livorno, Lucca, Empoli, Vinci. The medieval village is known as the town of furniture. Since 1800 the town has been a
capital for Italian furniture and a protagonist in woodworking. We recommend you visit the `Museum of Arts and Crafts of Wood` that has many machines and objects used by artisan shops.
The town started to develop in the thirteenth century and today are still standing the mediaeval walls and the beautiful church of Santa Maria Assunta and San Giovanni.
Among the typical products of Cascina, wooden furniture is certainly the most important. Here you will find many shops and centers specialized in woodworking.
Among the events in Casina we mention Mercantico, that takes place from October to June every first Sunday of the month with an exhibition of handicrafts and local antiques. To relive the medieval atmosphere you have to participate at the folkloristic event 'Aspettando la battaglia' (Waiting for the battle) in July that commemorates the Battle of Cascina which took place in 1368 with jesters, flag-bearer, knights and costumed ladies .
