A PLACE WITH OVER 1,000 YEARS OF HISTORY
Maiano has roots reaching back more than a millennium.
Historical research based on the medieval Regestum Volaterranum identifies Maiano as an ancient locality in the upper Valdera, approximately 3 km north of Volterra—the area in which Podere Maiano is located.
Medieval records describe Maiano as containing a medieval agricultural estate belonging to the Bishopric of Volterra. In the early Middle Ages, a curtis was an agricultural estate centered around a farm or manor and its surrounding cultivated land.
Records referring to agricultural holdings in Maiano reach as far back as the 10th century.
While we cannot know whether today's Podere Maiano is the exact property described in these medieval documents, the historical record tells us that this beautiful corner of Tuscany was already an established agricultural community more than 1,000 years ago.
Today, Podere Maiano continues that connection to the Tuscan countryside, surrounded by farmland and rolling hills near the ancient city of Volterra.
Stay at Podere Maiano and experience more than a beautiful Tuscan villa—experience a landscape shaped by more than a thousand years of history.
