Conventino


 

The Conventino, or little convent, is a narrow Tuscan stone building just steps beyond Villa I Busini. The area the Conventino covers is 30 square metres (320 square feet) and has been transformed into a gym.

It is believed to have been used by clergymen of the Chapel of San Giovanni di Battista (St. John the Baptist).

Preserved in all its original glory, the Conventino boasts large metal framed windows that open to the lush surrounding Tuscan landscape. It is equipped with a Technogym Kinesis personal offering more than 200 exercises with no need to adjust the equipment, a rowing machine, nordic walker, bench press and free weights.
