The Hamlet of Artimino situated in the nearby Florence hills was built in the ancient Etruscan era. Its medieval layout is still almost fully intact today, formed by an outer wall and the ancient village clock tower. In the Renaissance period, the hamlet became a Medici property together with the estate and the hunting reserve annex. The history of ‘La Ferdinanda’ Villa began in 1596 when the famous architect Bernardo Buontalenti was commissioned to build it by Ferdinando I de’ Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany.
