Parco del Neto

With an extension of about 7 hectares it has maintained intact those characteristics, once general for the whole plain, of wetland, relict of a larger lake system with a network of paths bordered by rows of lime trees and plane trees.

Excellent personalities and aristocrats have succeeded one another in the Neto property, before the Municipal Administration of Calenzano bought it.

There are numerous tree species in the park, but the most spectacular and characteristic plant presence is undoubtedly the Taxodium (or 'marsh cypress'), a species that is over 50 metreshigh and has an incrediblelongevity: it often exceeds a thousand years.
