Villa Rospigliosi is set in one of the most beautiful natural settings in the world, the Tuscan hills, a truly unique crossroads of nature, art and history. Designed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the most important architect of the Italian Baroque, author of the Colonnade of St. Peter and the Fountain of the Four Rivers in Piazza Navona in Rome.
Pope Clement never had time to live there because he died the same year that the works were started. The Villa, sober and well-matched with the Tuscan countryside, was used by the Rospigliosi family as a summer residence until the early twentieth century. In front of the main entrance the green of the garden is reflected in the splashes of the fountain. On the opposite side of the lawn emerges the Cappella Gentilizia embellished with frescoes.
