It became a municipium in the Roman Age and a place of interest of the Florentines, whose forces conquered Volterra in the medieval age.

You will enjoy a walk in the city after arriving through one of the most spectacular panoramic drive between the Volterra clay hills where quarries of alabaster are hidden.Alabaster white translucent stone is  used to produce enchanting bright artifacts by the Volterrani craftsmen that you will find in the beautiful shops.
