Sammezzano Castle in Tuscany Italy

Dear Art Lover,

365 rooms in the Castello di Sammezzano in Leccio, Italy, but you may never see them unless you are lucky enough to happen upon news of a special tour.  My last post went IMMEDIATELY into my two Facebook pages, so perhaps the subscription works too now... in any event, I want to share with you some more of the images of this amazing place.  Buy it if you can!  [Then invite me over]

For more information on the castle, visit:

Happy, happy winter solstice!



 



 

 

 


 





Sammezzano Castle in Leccio Tuscany Italy

Dear Art Lover,

Back in October I saw a posting about a castle in southern Tuscany that is never open, but for a rare day, one could make reservations to get a guided tour of this amazing space with 365 rooms.  I told a friend and we spoke to another friend who has a car.  Then I made the reservation. 

"Full!" was the response.  However, I was later informed that due to a high response, volunteers would be extending the tours to two days.  So, I made reserved a space for the five of us that fit into the car.

The Castello di Sammezzano lies very close to Leccio, Toscana, Italy.  I understand that is it for sale.  It definitely needs renovation, but it is truly one-of-a-kind (in a good way) with a large amount of wooded real estate surrounding the castle.

I keep trying things to fix/understand why Blogger or Feedburner has stopped sending my blog posts to the list of you who have subscribed.  For that reason, I am including ONLY one or two images in this post.  The rest will follow in another post.  Perhaps you will receive one ... or both, as you requested.

Happy, happy winter solstice!
