Our opinion
A thousand years of Tuscan history lie here, in the stones of a Medici abbey that has stood in Mugello since 1084. The Quattrocento cloisters, the nave of the church, the ornate columns: everything speaks of a time when architecture served to elevate the spirit. More than 54 hectares of rolling land extend beyond the building, offering a view of the valley that the monks once contemplated. The Via degli Dei passes nearby, reminding us that this place has always welcomed travellers, offering them a place to rest and meditate. The scale of the building calls for an ambitious transformation – into a residence, cultural space or contemporary retreat – but it is precisely this scale that gives it its power. Between restoration and reinvention, between monastic memory and life project, the abbey awaits someone who can combine respect for heritage with boldness of vision. This is not a place to visit: it is a place to experience.
