Susinana castle is in fact, only a few kilometres away and can be reached on foot along a trail that crosses the mountains. Maginardo implemented the defensive structure of Gamberaldi, a crucial point of his fief along the boundary between the Senio and Lamone valleys. At his death the land passed into the hands of his brother Ugolino and, therefore, the Ubaldini who, in 1362, surrendered it to Florence. Since the land bordered on the Papal State along the wheat and salt routes, Gamberaldi was at the heart of a dense network of roads used by financiers and smugglers, patriots and Carbonari. The trail was also travelled by Giuseppe Garibaldi in 1849, and in his honour it bears the name \u201cSentiero di Garibaldi\u201d (Garibaldi\u2019s trail). Today the village is made up of\u00a0 three ancient 14<sup>th<\/sup> century towers set around the Pozzo delle Corti.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Badia Santa Reparata<\/strong> (BADIA DEL BORGO), as a Benedictine abbey in 1025 and became a Vallumbrosan abbey in 1090 until it was suppressed in the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century. Of the original layout, we find the belltower, which makes the complex look more like a fortress than a convent, and the extensive remains of Romanesque walls on the left side of\u00a0 the church. The fa\u00e7ade is Baroque, while the interior, the high altar and the paintings, are in 18th-century\u00a0style. The paintings, which were created by the Master of Marradi at the end of the 15th century, are today found in San Lorenzo di Marradi church.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BADIA DELLA VALLE<\/strong> stands in the Valle Acerreta, just below the monastery. It can be reached by taking trail 521\/A and a dirt road. It was once one with Gamogna and founded in the same year (1053) by San Pier Damiani. The Rules of the abbey were very strict and stated that the monks had to spend a period of time in the Badia monastery and one in the Hermitage.\u00a0 Of the church only the vaulted crypt with its supporting columns remains: it was made into a cellar for the conservation of wine. A ladder leads to the rectory, officiated on occasion of particular religious feasts. The monks also had a mill; and the millstones are found leaning against the entrance to the churchyard.<\/p>\n<p>The ancient <strong>EREMO DI GAMOGNA<\/strong> on Alpe di San Benedetto was founded by San Pier Damiani in 1053. Dedicated to Saint Barnabas, it was used for spitual rites by the monks of the Badia della Valle that stands just below it and can be reached on foot. The church maintains its original Romanesque structure with the gabled fa\u00e7ade which looks east, and its semicircular apse with a conical roof covered in slate and a bell-gable. The cloister, the monks\u2019 cells, the oven, the drying-huts, and the barn complete the complex. After a period of neglect, the complex was restored to its ancient splendour and its role as a place of hospitality, spirituality, and prayer.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_images_carousel images=&#8221;2013&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_no&#8221; speed=&#8221;3000&#8243; autoplay=&#8221;yes&#8221; hide_prev_next_buttons=&#8221;yes&#8221; wrap=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1610459561085{padding-top: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;background-color: #d03e3b !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1610721053509{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2138&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1613142981062{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1611680592941{padding: 20px !important;background-image: url(https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/targyngy\/2021\/01\/background-light.jpg?id=1447) !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]GAMBERALDI In medieval times it was the castle of the Guidi Counts and was later bought by Pietro and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[76],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2548"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2548"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2548\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2624,"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2548\/revisions\/2624"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2548"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2548"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dante.mugellotoscana.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2548"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
