Pieve a Socana is a village in the centre of Casentino in the municipality of Castel Focognano, one kilometre from Rassina.
The village, an ancient Etruscan site, later an important Roman crossroads and even later a rich medieval village, develops around the Pieve (the church). It was a very important reference point in ancient Christianity and currently one of the most beautiful villages in Casentino.
In the centre of the village there are two grocery stores, stocked with everything you could possibly need. There are also two pizzerias/restaurants, the most famous being "Il Mulino" with its training school for pizza makers and many prizes won in international competitions.
On mild summer evenings, life in the village explodes, the bar "La Pieve", in the centre of the square, offers beautiful aperitifs and a fantastic Italian atmosphere.
The small playground next to the church will allow your children to play and make new friends with the village children, who are always ready to play.

Casentino is a small Tuscan valley bordering Romagna. Crossed by the Arno, it grew in the shadow of Florence and assessed itself in the region an account of its peculiarities. It is defined as a “closed valley” due to it’s location and lie of land.
Steeped in tradition, it’s cultural vocation and interrelation with it’s surrounding nature are some of the aspects that still typify Casentino. Not by chance did it give rise to one of the most beautiful parks in Europe, the National Casentino Forest Park, inspirited by the Franciscan Sanctuary of Chiusi della Verna and Camaldoli Hermitage.
The valley consists of thirteen municipalities, whose fascination lies in their deep-rooted attachment to their old coats-of-arm with resulting traditions, culture and folklore. The eternal completion between these old turreted villages is unquestionably the charm of this colourful “closed valley”, a treasure-chest of priceless works of art and luxuriant nature.
A few hundred metres from the river Arno there is a cycle path that starts from Rassina and will allow you to visit the whole valley with your bicycle.
