| Welcome to Serravalle Pistoiese |

The town of Serravalle lies on the sloping countryside at the foot of Montalbano. Because of its strategic position, the towns of Pistoia, Lucca and Florence fought for a long time for Serravalle dominion. Serravalle has then lost this strategic role and has recently become a peacefull and industrious village. On the hills the cultivation of olives and vines is still well attested, while on the plane many plants nurseries have become common. |
