A concise introduction to Radda in Chianti, its geography, history and culture.

Introduction

Changed

Radda, an ancient market town, has been key to Chianti’s wealth. This small charming hilltop village, located 600 meters above sea level, is surrounded by beautiful forests. Stroll the narrow, cobbled streets (most of them are traffic free) and admire the old town walls, that take you right back to the Middle Ages. Visit the Palazzo del Podestà (town hall), located in the heart of the town with its original facade of Medieval architecture and get a picture of the grand fountain.
