Casa della Civiltà Contadina di Gaville

Museum of Rural Culture in Gaville

The construction of the Parish Church of San Romolo in Gaville began soon after the turn of the millennium. Erected alongside a pre-existing tower that was turned into a campanile, the church was completed around 1070.

Of particular interest inside are the capitals, some of which are decorated with human and animal figures, and a 15th-century Annunciation by the School of Ghirlandaio.

The museum, which occupies farm buildings next to the church, contains objects illustrating the life, work and culture of rural society. An 18th-century olive mill and a fine herbarium are especially worth noting.
