The village that guards Leonardo’s “lost” battle

High above the Valtiberina in eastern Tuscany sits a hilltop town where history isn’t boxed away in a museum but written into the streets and skyline. Officially recognised among the Borghi più belli d’Italia, this village carries its medieval credentials lightly. 

What truly sets it apart, though, is its link to Leonardo da Vinci and the unfinished Battle of Anghiari — a lost mural that disappeared centuries ago, yet still lingers in the landscape where the real battle was fought.
