Fattoria della Vigna is 200 mts far from
Gello, an ancient tuscan village
founded centuries ago. The town definitely already
existed during the Middle Ages, and the first map it
appears on is one showing the Val di Cecina made
by Leonardo da Vinci in 1503 (Windsor Royal Library 12683).

 Gello
is an old village of nine stone houses and a
church, settled long time ago on the top of the
Cecina Valley hills, blessed by a stunning overlook
of the higher Maremma Toscana at 18 km from the
seaside.
The dominant position of Gello and the arrangement
of the buildings indicate that it was founded
centuries ago.
The town definitely already existed during the
Middle Ages, and the first map it appears on is one
showing the Val di Cecina made by Leonardo da Vinci
in 1503
(Windsor Royal Library 12683),
where Gello and the surrounding towns are clearly
indicated.
The eytmology of the name Gello, which is also
the name of two other Tuscan towns, comes
fromAgellum, the Latin diminutive for the word Ager
(field/little field and hints at its even more
ancient origins.
