History of the Cellar
The history of Badia di Morrona begins in the beautiful abbey at the beginning of the 1st millennium AD. Founded by Ugo dei Cadolingi, it was first managed by Cluniac Benedictine monks and then by Camaldolese monks. From 1482 it became the summer residence of the Bishops of Volterra and later, with the unification of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861 and the confiscation of the Church's assets, the abbey saw the passage of various owners and families until the Counts Gaslini Alberti purchased it in 1939. Egidio, father of the current owners Filippo and Alessandra, worked to restore the Abbey to its ancient splendor. Since 1939, each generation has played a crucial role in the growth and history of this reality: today Filippo and Alessandra are the third generation to lead Badia di Morrona and with the contribution of Francesca, Lorenzo and Niccolò, the young new generation of the family, the future of Badia di Morrona is yet to be written and discovered.
