Podere La Specola
About this venue
Podere La Specola
Behind the Chianti hills, on a slope overlooking the Valdarno, stands Podere La Specola.
The venue you choose for your wedding will play a leading role throughout the entire day: it will frame your most intense emotions, in that elegant and refined atmosphere you have perhaps always dreamed of.
The estate is set within a small hamlet made up of three buildings of very ancient origin. Over the centuries it has been home to illustrious figures: it was the property and residence of Marsilio Ficino (1433–1499), philosopher, humanist, astrologer and tutor to the Medici family. Today, thanks to a careful and refined restoration, the complex preserves its original structure intact.
Spaces and capacity
With its distinctive fourteenth-century architecture, Podere La Specola offers striking, character-filled spaces, perfect for banquets and receptions. The extensive park of roughly 5 hectares and the outdoor pool area lend themselves beautifully to aperitifs and open-air toasts with your guests.
Services
The staff of Podere La Specola will be entirely at your disposal to make your experience unique and unforgettable, guiding you with care and warmth in choosing the best suppliers in the field.
