Discover Diaccialone
Accommodation in Diaccialone
When searching for a hotel in Diaccialone, themes of remembrance, agriculture and viticulture can also help guide your choice. Specific points of interest range from the annual commemoration in Maiano Lavacchio and the history of the Il Diaccialone farm to viticulture and a visit offered by Agriturismo Collelungo di Maremma to guests staying there. These themes appeal to different travel interests: commemorative culture, the history of agriculture or a guided visit to wineries. First consider whether you are more interested in the commemoration in Maiano Lavacchio, agricultural history or visiting wineries.
Commemoration in Maiano Lavacchio
An official commemoration of the massacre takes place every year in Maiano Lavacchio. The Casa della Memoria al Futuro in Maiano Lavacchio is part of the “Paesaggi della Memoria” network. The ceremony is a recurring occasion for remembrance; the Casa’s membership also places it within a network. In Maiano Lavacchio, you will therefore find two distinct points of reference for commemorative culture. If you would like to include the annual ceremony in your travel plans, check the date for the year in question. This allows you to plan your travel dates around the commemoration.
Agricultural history
Il Diaccialone began as a 640-hectare farm, acquired in 1962 for breeding Maremma cattle. The figures and purpose provide a clear historical context: the area describes the farm’s size at the time, 1962 marks its acquisition, and cattle breeding identifies its intended use. For travellers interested in the agricultural past, the combination of the farm’s size, the year it was acquired and its role in breeding Maremma cattle is particularly informative.
Viticulture and Agriturismo Collelungo di Maremma
At Agriturismo Collelungo di Maremma, historical use and agricultural production come together. It is located in a former local school building and an agricultural estate whose documented roots date back to 1980. The agriturismo also includes a one-hectare vineyard belonging to the Morellino di Scansano DOCG. The former school building and roots dating back to 1980 provide a historical connection; the vineyard adds agricultural production and a specific area figure. The figures refer to different scales: 640 hectares is the area of the historic Il Diaccialone farm, while one hectare is the size of the vineyard at Collelungo.
Collelungo can arrange guided visits to Morellino di Scansano wineries in the surrounding area. Participation is conditional on staying at the agriturismo. The one-hectare vineyard and the guided visits are different aspects of the wine theme: the vineyard is part of the agriturismo itself, while the visits are to wineries in the surrounding area. If you would like to plan a guided visit, coordinate the arrangements with the agriturismo.
Getting to the agriturismo
Agriturismo Collelungo di Maremma can be reached via Provincial Road No. 79 di Poggio alla Mozza at kilometre 12.700. The road name and kilometre marker together provide specific directions for getting there. Include both details in your route planning and check the current route before setting off.
