The Black Plague marked the end of the place: the monks, having little space at their disposal, threw their dead in a ditch near the well from which they drew water to drink, infesting the entire population. Inside the splendid Romanesque church with a basilica plan, a fresco is still visible where the village seems to float on the water. This is the same abbey mentioned by Archbishop Sigeric as Borgonuovo \u2013 the original name of the place. It was he who \u201cdesigned\u201d the route of the Francigena in 990 AD, when he related the 79 stages completed during his return journey from Rome, where he had gone to receive the papal investiture, in Canterbury. The section of the Tuscan Francigena that connects the ancient village to Monteriggioni is beautiful. The route is of low level of difficulty and runs for about 4 km. Great golden expanses of wheat, woods and suggestive views of the castle, a destination for the traveler.
