Il Crocicchio, a small village where the farmhouse is located, has been located since time immemorial on the crossroads of important roads that connected, in Roman times, with an ancient military road, Emilia to Tuscany and in the minor roads, the parish churches, villages and castles in the surrounding area. An almost obligatory intersection on the paths and roads leading to the ancient water mills located on the Crostolo and Campola streams. Almost certainly also a stopping point for changing horses.
