Roccastrada

Impruneta sits in the hills south of Florence, famous for terracotta production that dates back centuries. Workshops still craft traditional pots, tiles, and garden ornaments using local clay. The town hosts one of Tuscany's largest autumn fairs, celebrating the grape harvest and terracotta crafts. Vineyards producing Chianti wines surround the town, and several estates welcome visitors for tastings. The historic center preserves Renaissance architecture, including a sanctuary housing important artworks. The combination of artisan traditions, wine production, and proximity to Florence makes this a distinctive destination blending craft heritage with agricultural culture.
