The Maremma has an ancient and difficult history.
A land that was clawed back from marshes and from malaria, a land of immigration.
Today, it’s a land covered in cultivated fields, in woodland, scattered with little mediaeval towns that are still intact. Capalbio is a splendid example.
Tourism, the principle activity other than agriculture, finds here a clean sea and spacious beaches, protected by dunes and Mediterranean scrublands.
In a radius of 30-35 km you can visit historical and archeological sites retracing the presence of humans in these lands from the Etruscans to the Romans, the Aldobrandeschi, the Orsini, the Medici, the Lorena.
