Initiative in collaboration with Unicoop Firenze, members section of Castelfiorentino, to get to know our territory and to promote well-being in practicing sporting activities.

Partiremo dal bellissimo borgo di Petrognano per immergerci nel territorio di Semifonte, oggi solo un toponimo di una località fra Certaldo e Barberino, nota per una cappella, riproduzione in miniatura della cupola di Firenze, ma un tempo città fortificata, tanto potente da far credere ai suoi abitanti di poter sfidare Firenze ….. “Fiorenza, fatti in là che Semifonte si fa città” … fu completamente distrutta, ma ancora oggi è possibile scorgerne i segni della sua grandezza.

Sarà l’occasione di scoprire piccoli borghi e tesori artistici ormai dimenticati, godendo di panorami mozzafiato sulla Val d’Elsa.

A real dive into history!
