In Tuscany, wine is a tradition, a culture, a way of living and marking time and the seasons; but for some all this is declined into a real passion. This is the case of Alberto Margheriti, who has been able to wisely transfuse his great love into the “Vini di Toscana” brand, a chain of elegant and well-stocked wine bars that aim to tell and enhance the most authentic soul of our region.

The visit to the Abbadia San Salvatore Mining Museum Park is structured in three parts, each one fascinating. The first is represented by the multimedia museum The ‘Geography of Mercury’, where, like a script, everything revolves around this metal element and immerses the viewer in the narrative of mining life: the myth, the territory, the work, the men and the material constitute the chapters of the story; multimedia technologies take the visitor on a fascinating journey: “there are numerous mining parks ̶̶ explains Massimo Sabatini, president of the Terre di Toscana Consortium ̶̶ but very few focused on mercury and it is no coincidence that we are twinned with Idrija in Slovenia and Almadén in Spain which, together with Abbadia, formed the three main poles of mercury production in Europe. In the museum you will find films, videos and oral testimonies of those who spent their lives in mining.”
