The construction was designed for the Marquis Romano Garzoni, perhaps also the first architect of the garden, who are the main attraction of the Villa. Key-words: Architecture, medieval village, Tuscany, Italian Garden. 1. INTRODUCTION: COLLODI DI CASTELLO E LA FAMIGLIA GARZONI In the ancient village of Collodi Castello, a small fraction of the municipality of Pescia in the province of Pistoia, there is a fascinating medieval village, a place where nature and art form a unique whole that perfectly embodies the eighteenth-century taste in a fairytale dimension: it is the complex of Villa Garzoni and its baroque garden [1]. Country of origin of the mother of Carlo Lorenzini, who took his pseudonym from it, Carlo Collodi, it is a very popular destination for tourists, attracted by the Pinocchio park built in the 1950s and by the "toy town" completed in the second mid-60s, inspired by the adventures of the famous puppet (“Fig. 1”). With the invasion of the Goths, the village took on the appearance of a fortified castle and maintained its stratification even with the invasion of the Longobard people. For many centuries, the town was disputed between the city of Florence and Lucca, until 20 October 1442 when it was conquered by the Lucchesi [2] but in the twentieth century the town passed definitively to the province of Pistoia (“Fig. 2-3”). “Fig.1” Sculptures in the Pinocchio park in Collodi International Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies and Research (IJMSR) Volume-1, Issue-1; May-August, 2021 32 Raffaela Fiorillo “Fig.1” View of the Villa Garzoni of 1633 with the village of Castello behind it and the enclosed land to its right.

The history of the Garzoni family is closely linked to the events in the town of Collodi, following the struggles between Guelphs and Ghibellines for possession of the International Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies and Research (IJMSR) Volume-1, Issue-1; May-August, 2021 AN 18TH CENTURY ENCHANTEMENT: VILLA GARZONI IN COLLODI 33 Valdinievole, a region in the south-western Province of Pistoia. It was a powerful family from Pescia, belonging to the faction of the Ghibellines who, following the defeat of the latter, were stolen their assets and forced into exile in Lucca. The first bond between the Garzoni and Collodi family was created when Giovanni Garzoni, captain in the service of the Scaligeri and Visconti, acquired several lands from the monasteries of Santa Maria Novella and Santa Croce in Valdarno. The family, after making their fortune in Lucca, had obtained a significant reputation and decided to return to the Pistoia area and build the villa, the work of the Marquis Romano Garzoni, which had an exalting function of the popularity achieved and still remains one of the most spectacular in the area [3]. 2. LA VILLA DELLE “CENTO FINESTRE” E IL SUO GIARDINO An example of a noble residence in the Baroque style, the villa was built in a dominant position with respect to the landscape, as if to cover the village. The first news of the construction dates back to 1633 and the design of both the villa and the historic garden are the work of Romano di Alessandro Garzoni who succeeded in designing a building that stands out in the landscape for its refined elegance and grandeur. The first source that describes in detail the seventeenth-century location of the complex is the work of the poet Francesco Sbarra, Le Pompe di Collodi of 1652 [4]. The villa built before the garden, with a grandiose façade, is on 5 levels and is connected to the garden by two flights of steps which contribute to amplifying the scenographic effect. Precisely for this reason it is called "of the hundred windows", considering its considerable size and the presence of many rooms with windows (“Fig. 4”). “Fig.4” Main facade of Villa Garzoni, Collodi. The first floor of the villa - the only one that can be visited - houses the main rooms, dining room, a ballroom, various bedrooms and other rooms and are decorated with stuccoes and frescoes [5] (“Fig. 5”).

The garden is the strong point of the villa. The access area is in the shape of an overturned bell and surrounded by a wall surrounded by cypresses and box hedges. Arranged on terraced floors, it is characterized by an imposing double flight of steps and a complex hydraulic system that created water features in the past centuries. The villa International Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies and Research (IJMSR) Volume-1, Issue-1; May-August, 2021 AN 18TH CENTURY ENCHANTEMENT: VILLA GARZONI IN COLLODI 35 ended near the lake, in the pavilion of the baths, or Bagnetti, where the ladies and knights could relax, away from prying eyes (“Fig. 6”). “Fig.6” Plan of the site in 1692. Villa Garzoni, Collodi. The garden, starting from the seventies of the seventeenth century, takes on a mystical- allegorical connotation, but no trace will remain there; in fact, Alessandro Garzoni, Romano's nephew and heir, commissioned the Turin architect Filippo Juvarra to modernize the garden. International Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies and Research (IJMSR) Volume-1, Issue-1; May-August, 2021 36 Raffaela Fiorillo The project for the Clock Building, or Summer Building, also dates from the same period, built according to Juvarra's idea, albeit with some changes (“Fig. 7”). Ottaviano Diodati also collaborates in the realization, who designs the two large tanks to collect all the water present at the entrance to the garden, enriched by water lilies and jets [6]. The theme of water dominating the garden scene. Located in the center of the terrace called “viale delle palma” is the grotto of Neptune, a vast octagonal-shaped room all covered with sponges and vaulted. A third curved double-flight staircase leads to the third shelf where the Bosco di Lecci is located, cut lengthwise by a chain of water that starts from a tuff basin where the statue of Fame stands out, from here two water chains start, at sides of an artificial cliff populated by animals and plants, where the theme of metamorphosis is re-proposed [7]. The disappearance of the Garzoni family, in the 1920s, led the Collodi complex to undergo several changes of ownership, until the acquisition in recent times by a real estate company which in 2004 began major restorations of the villa with the its outbuildings and the garden, which in 2007 was enriched with the Butterfly House, a greenhouse that reproduces the tropical environment where many species of butterflies fly free. “Fig.7” Palazzina dell'Orologio, building designed by Filippo Juvarra.

CONCLUSIONS The complex of the Villa and the Garzoni Garden represents an episode known for its historical, architectural, and botanical importance. Here the link between myth and history reigns, between time and nature, everything seems to live as it did then. Telling the story kept in the Garden of Villa Garzoni, next to that of Pinocchio, means encouraging visitors to return to discover aspects and characters, which may not have been revealed immediately, or even to discover new ones.

  • The Impacts in Real Estate of Landscape Values: Evidence from Tuscany (Italy)
    sustainability Article The Impacts in Real Estate of Landscape Values: Evidence from Tuscany (Italy) Francesco Riccioli 1,* , Roberto Fratini 2 and Fabio Boncinelli 2 1 Department of Veterinary Science—Rural Economics Section, University of Pisa, 56124 Pisa, Italy 2 Department of Agriculture, Food, Environment and Forestry, University of Florence, 50144 Firenze, Italy; roberto.fratini@unifi.it (R.F.); fabio.boncinelli@unifi.it (F.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Using spatial econometric techniques and local spatial statistics, this study explores the relationships between the real estate values in Tuscany with the individual perception of satisfaction by landscape types. The analysis includes the usual territorial variables such as proximity to urban centres and roads. The landscape values are measured through a sample of respondents who expressed their aesthetic-visual perceptions of different types of land use. Results from a multivariate local Geary highlight that house prices are not spatial independent and that between the variables included in the analysis there is mainly a positive correlation. Specifically, the findings demonstrate a significant spatial dependence in real estate prices. The aesthetic values influence the real estate price throughout more a spatial indirect effect rather than the direct effect. Practically, house prices in specific areas are more influenced by aspects such as proximity to essential services. The results seem to show to live close to highly aesthetic environments not in these environments. The results relating to the distance from the main roads, however, seem counterintuitive. This result probably depends on the evidence that these areas suffer from greater traffic jam or pollution or they are preferred for alternative uses such as for locating industrial plants or big shopping centres rather than residential Citation: Riccioli, F.; Fratini, R.; use.

  • “Eco-Tourism Programme” Put Together with the Help of a Group of Guides Specialised in Hiking Trips
    Toscana Trekking is our new “Eco-tourism programme” put together with the help of a group of guides specialised in hiking trips. Under the auspices of Toscana Trekking, VEGA BLU VIAGGI proposes day excursions, hiking trips and nature and cultural packages with the services of fully-qualified, licensed hiking guides, members of AIGAE, the National association of hiking guides. Our eco-tourist activities are completely different from traditional tourist packages in that they are aimed at people who enjoy hiking and walks and who prefer to stay in simple and informal accommodation while still maintaining a guarantee of good quality. Each trip is distinguished by various levels of walking difficulty (which are clearly explained, with easier alternatives in the case of the harder routes). For each route uphill ascents and walking times are specified. All hiking routes are covered at a relaxed pace (except in unforeseen circumstances) and according to the walking pace of participants. The emphasis of the itineraries is to get to know the surrounding countryside and its history rather than the hiking itself. Walking therefore becomes the means which allows us to discover the human dimension of the places we visit, to establish continuous and valuable exchanges with their inhabitants, and to get to know and understand the nature of these communities in the light of their history and popular traditions. The guide will adopt the role of the islander or mountain dweller, farmer or sailor, be it from Elba, Siena, Pavia or Ponza, and will try to involve participants in his or her enthusiasm for the history and the environment, and in a respectful curiosity for the local inhabitants.

This article is published online with Open Access by IOS Press and distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial License. doi:10.3233/978-1-61499-403-9-79 Developing accessibility plans: methods and tools. Case study a,1 b a Ilaria GAROFOLO , Antonio LAURÌA and Silvia GRION a Department of Engineering and Architecture, University of Trieste b Department of Architecture, University of Florence Abstract. High levels of quality for built environments that meet the needs of the largest segments of population can be achieved by enhancing their accessibility, seen as the attitude of places, goods and services to be identifiable, approachable, understandable and usable autonomously by all. Despite an abounding framework of standards and regulations, places don’t always reach a satisfying accessibility degree being, in fact, full of physical and perceptive obstacles. The "culture" of Universal Design has not yet been able to substantially modify the processes of planning and designing the habitat transformation; this calls for shifting the action from the mere compliance with regulation to the implementation of strategies for environmental regeneration. The effectiveness of projects that achieve the highest accessibility degree cannot be separated from the ability to involve all the stakeholders in the decision making process, hence including end users. Consistent policies at different scales and the development of actions with a strategic value can be adopted to meet the vision, such as the planning of interventions guided by appropriate operational tools.

Tourism is an alternative for oth- er types of economic activity, this relates to spatial units of diverse area, including cities. The tourist function can become the mechanism of local development for cities and the protection of the cultural and natural heritage. The main goal of the article is to present the tourist po- tential of a historical city and the possibilities of further development of tourist movement in light of current tendencies of the world tourist market.

A close relative of urban tourism is cultural tourism, which is defined as a set of tourist behaviors resulting from an interest in the heritage of material and nonmaterial culture. There is a variety of definitions of cultural tourism (Hughes, 1996; Bonet, 2003) including very narrow ones that associate cultural tourism with visits to museums and archaeological sites, as well as broad ones that blur out the lines between cultural tourism and other forms of tourism (ICOMOS, 2002).
