Property info

In the 17th century Mormoraia was a convent. The buildings have been completely restored mantaining the features and characteristics of the old times. Mormoraia is at only 6 km. from San Gimignano (about 3 km as the crow flies). During the middle ages San Gimignano was a very rich town on the Francigena route (a road connecting France to Rome) with over 72 towers (now only 14). From our farmhouse there is a stunning view over the vignards and the towers of San Gimignano.
