Villa del Trebbio

The Villa del Trebbio was acquired in the 14th century in the early days of the rise in the Medici's fortunes. It was built on the ruins of a Lombard tower. Restored by Michelozzo, its architecture retains medieval motifs with a large square tower closely associated with a tall residential building punctuated with regualr window openings on its first floor.

The internal courtyard has a glazed loggia with slender pillars and an exterior staircase. The main building is crowned with an exterior walkaway in medieval style. Located on the top of a hill, it dominates the Mugello plain.
