Visiting Castellina Marittima allows you to experience a scenery that brings together all the most characteristic aspects of the Tuscan landscape: rolling hills where olives, wine and wheat are harvested, rows of cypress trees and the lush Mediterranean scrub.
Newspapers have documented Castellina Marittima from around the 13th century, but some historians speak of its Etruscan origin, given the presence of alabaster mines called Bianco di Castellina. In fact, one of the things to discover here is the historic link with extracting and processing alabaster.
