Borgo San Lorenzo: The town, which is the most important centre of the Mugello, rises at the widest part of the Sieve Valley. The original town was formed around the court of the Ubaldini, the Roman hamlet of Annejanum. Towards the middle of the 10th century a part passed under the rule of the Florentine Bishops to which it rebelled in 1273; then it was proclaimed a Commune. It was a theatre of struggles between the Guelphs and the Ghibellines following the fate of Florence. In 1351 the walls and two gates (Porta Fiorentina and Porta dell'Orologio) of which very little remains were constructed. In 1440 the town was besieged by Niccolò Piccinino in favour of the Albizi; in 1527 it was a fortress against the French. The town was modernized and improved during the period of the Grand Duke to whose administration the town complied. In 1913 it was the seat of the first Agricultural Industrial Exhibition of the Mugello and the Sieve Valley. It was semi-destroyed by the earthquake in 1919. In 1943 it went through an English air raid; in 1944 other attacks were repeated, this time on the railway bridges. |
