The name of this spa bath, discovered in 1370, comes - according to the legend - from the small roof that the peasants placed above the spring for shelter. In the 18th century the Tuscan Grand-Duke Leopoldo ordered the construction of the first spa bath, whose façade is today a national monument. The other wonderful structures were made in the '20s by Ugo Giovannozzi, the architect renowned for his Art Nouveau works. The Tettuccio springs are a concentrate of beauty given thanks to the artwork of artists of the time: Basilio Cascella decorated with majolica, marble and travertine the Water Gallery; Carlo G. Moroni and the Artist Galileo Chini decorated the reading room and the post and telegraph room, and Maria Biseo frescoed the café walls with Tuscan and Umbrian landscapes. The orchestra stand was done by Giovannozzi while the new hall was done in 1989 by the architect Paolo Portoghesi. The Tettuccio baths are more than just a name, they are a symbol of the town and of its glorious past.
