The ancient core of Saturnia stands on a rocky plateau to the left of the Albegna River, at its confluence with the Stellata stream. The settlement's existence is documented from the 12th century, although it was originally an Etruscan (nearby Etruscan necropolis of Pian di Palma) and Roman center (along the Via Clodia), as the site of a parish church and the already famous thermal baths. In 1170, the castle was under the control of the Counts of Tentennano, from 1216 under the Aldobrandeschi, and then passed to Count Bonifacio di Santa Fiora. In 1274, with the dismemberment of the Aldobrandeschi fiefdom, Saturnia became part of the County of Sovana. It was sacked by the Sienese in 1299 and by the Orvietans in 1313, who occupied it. In 1328, it passed to the Baschi family and subsequently to the Orsini. Siena conquered it, but only temporarily, in 1389 and, unable to control it, destroyed it in 1419 as it had become a haven for exiles from the Republic. In the following years, it was decided to rebuild the keep and the walls and to settle a certain number of families from Romagna and Lombardy on site. Saturnia remained under the Sienese dominion until its submission to Cosimo de' Medici in 1559. It was a fiefdom of the Marquises Ximenes from 1593 and of the Panciatichi from 1738.

A completely restored medieval village, perched on a cliff overlooking the Albegna valley, in the municipality of Semproniano.

Molino Waterfalls, free admission, 38-degree thermal water!

Fresh spring dawn with warm thermal water

This natural thermal spa with its various pools is a truly special natural spectacle. A dream come true in the mornings or evenings. Reachable from the campervan site in just under 20 minutes on foot. Restaurants, showers, and restrooms are right next door.

If you don't want to be so crowded, you have to get up early. It's already packed by midday. We're not bed-leavers, so we drove past it and didn't come back until the evening. With the last rays of sun, there were fewer bathers and more peace and quiet for relaxation in the comfortably warm water with a view of the wonderful nature. Your nose gets used to the slight smell of sulphur very quickly. Don't miss it.😊

Very difficult to reach. Unfortunately the other side was completely overgrown. Not recommended!!

Beautiful place, unfortunately no longer very heavily inhabited, but with a trattoria where you can sit very nicely and which has a magical outdoor area with a view of the newly renovated main square.
