Regello have an extention of 121.9 sq km at the most eastern part of the Province of Florence, from the bottom of the Arno valley to the top of the mountains of Pratomagno, from 103 metres above sea level to a height of 1537 metres at Poggio dell’Uomo di Sasso.

A few kilometres from Florence, on the direct line which unites the principal Tuscan city to Arezzo, Umbria and then to Rome. Opposite are the mountains of the Chianti, a natural boundary between the upper Valdarno and the territory of Siena.

The antique name “Castelnuovo della Pieve di Cascia” was changed under the Lorena, at the time of Pietro Leopoldo, to “Reggello”, which comes from “rege”, a term that indicated the antique holdings of the Longobards.

Reggello is famous for its agricultural products. An international exhibition and market based on the local extra-virgin olive oil is held here each December.
The parish Church of San Pietro a Cascia nearby dates from the 12th century and the reign of Countess Matilde di Canossa.
A portico precedes the entrance to the church, which is completed by a simple bell-tower.
The interior is divided into three naves whose capitals are carved with marvellous archaic figures, similar to those at the Church of Gropina.

The called road of the seven bridges starts for Arezzo from here and is of great historical and artistic interest, apart from the beautiful scenery to be found en route.
