“la Biagiola” project is a gamble.
The Association “Cultura e Territorio”, under the direction of the Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici della Toscana,
has decided from the planning, to involve as many local realities as possible
from local associations to enterprises.
Our mission is to create a strong local network.
We want to transform quickly the Cultural Heritage in a real territorial resource both cultural and economic,
to create wealth for the population of this area, so rich in precious testimonies of our past.
“La Biagiola” archaeological site is really important to retrace the less known aspects of the ancient history of Sovana.
Excavations at "La Biagiola", in fact, have unearthed a multi-layer archaeological site, where several residential and productive phases followed one another from the Early to the Late Roman Age.
Also a necropolis has been unearthed, which returned interesting finds attributable to the Langobard culture.
The Association “Cultura e Territorio” coordinated the project and obtained the funds needed.
Those are just private funds. Our principal sponsor is “la Biagiola” winery, our patrons indeed.
Our goal is to continue the investigation of the site, the most part of which has still to be excavated.
We want also to make accessible as soon as possible what has already been brought to light.
At first with regular guided tours
and in the future by setting up an archaeological park.
If you want to save “la Biagiola” and to learn more about the site, please support us with a donation!
