Vista dall'alto dell'intero borgo

Poggio Santa Cecilia is a splendid village on a hillock few kilometres from Rapolano Terme, to which it is linked by a country road which starts from the ancient Thermae of Querciolaia. The name of this village is mentioned in the splendid book “Garibaldian itineraries in Tuscany and environs 1848-1867”by Francesco Asso, published by the Tuscany region, because here Giuseppe Garibaldi stayed for some days when he came here to undergo treatments at the Thermae of Querciolaia for his wound on a foot, which he got in Aspromonte. So, pushed by the curiosity, I decided to visit it: big surprise! It is a phantom village, completely deserted.
