Thanks to its geographical position in the heart of Tuscany, Villa Mimmina is the perfect location and ideal starting point for exploring the most important historical and cultural centres of the region. It is located in the flat area at the foot of the medieval borgo of Civitella in the Valdichiana. We are in the area of Valdichiana Aretina, a low mountain area located in the extreme extension of the Tuscan Pre-Apennines, crossed by the river Arno. The Valdichiana is a wide valley that extends south-west of the province of Arezzo, and includes the provinces of Arezzo and Siena, in Tuscany, and Perugia and Terni, in Umbria. Once named "the granary of Etruria" due to its fertile lands which favoured the rise of Etruscan settlements, today it is an area rich in artistic, cultural and food&wine attractions. Cortona, Monte San Savino, Lucignano and Castiglion Fiorentino are some of the towns near the villa that merit a visit.
