The village of Modigliana was built on the ancient “Castrum Mutilum”, where in the year 201 B.C. the Romans lost almost 7000 soldiers in a battle against a tribe of Gauls called “Boi”. The presence of a necropolis is already documented in the I century B.C.
During the Middle Age, in the year 1278, the Castle of Modigliana was conquered by the Florentines and, since then, it had been under the influence of the Republic of Florence and the Medici family.
Evidences confirm the existence of the house since the year 1386. A route for Somano (ancient name of the building) is mentioned in the "Statuti" of the 1300.
