Tourist and Historical Information Gambassi Terme is a suggestive village of Etruscan-Roman origin nestled on the hills of the Valdelsa, historically renowned for its healing thermal springs documented since antiquity, today enhanced by the modern spa facility located in the heart of the municipal park. The village has indissolubiment linked its history to the Via Francigena, the ancient medieval pilgrimage route connecting Canterbury to Rome, detailed by Archbishop Sigeric of Canterbury in 990 AD, who identified the Pieve di Santa Maria a Chianni (located a very short distance from the estate) as the XX stage of his historical itinerary. This beautiful 12th-century Romanesque parish church represents one of the most important architectural monuments in Tuscany. The surrounding territory is characterized by a rich food and wine tradition dominated by the production of Chianti DOCG wine and Tuscan extra virgin olive oil, and offers a privileged starting point to visit in a few minutes the extraordinary medieval village of Certaldo, home of Giovanni Boccaccio, and the towers of San Gimignano.
