Museo Corboli in Asciano

A journey into the soul of the Crete Senesi

When you choose to stay at Il Casale di Lucullo, in the heart of the Tuscan countryside near Lucignano, you are not only looking for relaxation, silence, and beauty. You are also seeking an authentic connection with history, art, and the deep-rooted identity of the land. For this very reason, among the experiences we love to recommend to our guests is a visit to the Museo Corboli in Asciano, a small cultural gem nestled in the historic village of Asciano, at the heart of the Crete Senesi.

A museum that tells centuries of Tuscan history

The Museo Corboli is not an ordinary museum: it is an intimate, welcoming place, capable of surprising its visitors. Housed in an elegant historic palace in the center of Asciano, the museum preserves artworks and historical evidence that narrate the story of the area from the Middle Ages to the 19th century.

As you walk through its rooms, you will discover:

• paintings from the Sienese and Florentine schools

• works by artists closely connected to the local area

• ceramics, furnishings, and sacred art objects

• documents that help illustrate the cultural evolution of the Crete Senesi

Each room invites you to slow down, observe, and let yourself be guided by the stories emerging from the artworks.

An emotional experience, not just a cultural one

Visiting the Museo Corboli means tuning into the soul of Asciano. Thanks to its small size, the museum offers a relaxed and immersive visit, far from the crowds of major tourist circuits. It is the perfect experience for travelers who enjoy art at a gentle pace—perhaps on a bright morning or a quiet afternoon, followed by a meal at a traditional trattoria in the village.

Many of our guests return deeply impressed not only by the artworks themselves, but also by the atmosphere: silent, authentic, and profoundly Tuscan.
