The Mugello is a majestic, beautiful part of Tuscany, sitting in the hills above noble Florence where the Renaissance was born. Well known as it is for its nature and food, you’ll find here also the birthplace of some of the great artists of that period. Giotto and Cimabue, two of the greats, both lived in Vicchio, home to our Villa Campestri Olive Oil resort. Beato Angelico was also born in this magical area. Below we give a taste of this artistic heritage and atmosphere, and we’ll also tell you about the art classes we offer at Villa Campestri, through which we hope to lend a touch to the true spirit of the Mugello.
