The
purpose of the museum is to describe the history of the wine,
the territory and the people of Carmignano from the Etruscans
to the Renaissance and the 20th century.
Montemurlo, the second biggest municipality of the Province
of Prato, set between the hills at the east and the river Agna
at the west, is dominated by the Fortress from the 10th century.
A severe irregular building surrounded by a holm-oak park. The
Medieval fortress became a high-class residence in the 16th
century and it was here where Montemurlo fell to the Medici
family of Filippo Strozzi in 1537. |
