Over 3,000 years of history uncovered by chance... now carefully preserved under crystal floors
When our family started renovating this building in 2001 we had no idea that a hidden world of ancient history was waiting to be discovered beneath our feet. Careful excavations unearthed one of the most important archaeological finds right here in the center if Volterra. Inside this renovated area, guests can view an Etruscan wall, a part of the main Via Etrusca antrance to the city, an Etruscan well seven meters deep along with a Roman road and medieval pavement.
Here we are, with our central hall reception and our plant based restaurant. Welcome to our lovely Volterra.
