Bagnaia
The village of Bagnaia is the site of 16th-century cardinal Alessandro Montalo's summer retreat. The hillside garden and park that surround the two small, identical residences are the real draw, designed by virtuoso architect Giacomo Barozzi (circa 1507-73), known as Vignola, who later worked with Michelangelo on St. Peter's.
