In the year 1511, Niccolò Machiavelli (who possessed family estates about 6 km from Bibbione in Sant’Andrea in Percussina) bought the Castle and the farmland using it as a hunting lodge. The Machiavelli’s remained in possession of the complex until 1727, when the last heir, Francesco Machiavelli, died leaving his cousin, Giovanni Battista Rangoni, a Modenese noble descendent of the Machiavelli, heir to the name and inheritance, title and heraldic arms of Machiavelli who took on the name of Rangoni Machiavelli. The entire complex remains bound from 1913, and therefore, under the tutorship of the Superintendent of Culture, Environment and Architecture of Florence and Pistoia. The Marchioness Antonella Rangoni Machiavelli had personally followed the renovation of the Castle and medieval village begun in 1985. From the top of Sant'Angelo's hill, in the Florentine Chianti, the castle dominates an estate of nearly 247 acres cultivated with vines, olive trees and other crops. Open all year round, it is the ideal place for relaxing holidays and for the discovery of the major Tuscany cities, thanks to its strategic location: Florence, Siena, San Gimignano, Lucca and Arezzo.
