The Art Nouveau building was built by Pirro Pratesi between 1926 and 1928 and reflects the artistic expression of the Maremma of the time; the movement was slow to reach the area and indeed survived long after the end of the First World War. The entryway bears the emblem of Baschi family, medieval lords of Montemerano, with their motto: “SILICA FORTIOR EX, EX ADIPE UBERIOR”.
