Dating back to the 9th century, this estate welcomed illustrious philosophers of the Enlightenment, who used to meet and discuss the ideals of the Risorgimento in its splendid halls.

In the past, it belonged to the noble Tombesi Trecci family, the most famous exponent being Engineer Gurlino, who was mayor of the town of Montepulciano at the end of the 19th century. Driven by Enlightenment ideals, Gurlino contributed to the unification of Italy and left an indelible mark on the town's institutions, such as the railway, the aqueduct, the music institute and the foundation of the high school which gave Montepulciano a pre-eminent position.

Another living room is painted and houses an upright piano and a fireplace, on the sofas of these living rooms, the protagonists of the Italian Risorgimento used to converse. The ceilings, originally with beams and decorated with geometric motifs, were frescoed in 1830 by Maestro Andrea Galeotti of Cortona and are still intact after two centuries.

The eight double bedrooms, each equipped with period bathrooms and furnishings, have maintained their unaltered character over time. From the windows of this noble palace you can enjoy a spectacular view of the surrounding countryside, rich in olive groves and vineyards, with farmhouses scattered as far as the lakes of Chiusi and Montepulciano, and the outline of Trasimeno on the horizon.
