Who we are

The farm Musignano di Andreoli G. e C. takes its name from the locality Musignano, where the manor house i.e. "la villa" of the owner family is located. The house is also known ac­cording to the names of its owner families, i.e. Taccini, Fargna, Giorgi, Marte­giani and nowadays Andreoli.

The manor house (villa) has been de­signed and built by the architect Santini at the middle of 18 hundreds for the noble lady Adele Taccini, who was so fond of her house that she wanted to be buried in the small chapel inside the house itself. Probably it is due to this very rea­son that the house has recently taken again the name Villa Taccini.

Originally the house was surrounded by agricultural lands of the farm. How­ever, at the moment around the ma­nor house one finds only a park and some woodlands, while the farm is almost ex­clusively located in Pon­ticelli that is a fraction of the municipality of Città della Pieve.

The farm production is mainly gear­ed towards arable crops that cover the majority of agricultural land, but our farm has also about seven hec­tares of vineyards and more than 1.250 olive trees on the hills that are particularly suitable for these crops.

During the recent years we have star­ted an improvement and investment process in the farm that has meant a re-appreciation of available farm re­sou­rces like olive groves, vine­yards and old tenant houses out of which one is cur­rently destined for agritourism .
