The tradition of glass making in Tuscany has origins dating back to the medieval period. In the territory of Montaione, a document dating back to the year 1279, certifies the presence of furnaces for the manufacture of glasses and glass objects; many of these buildings have been converted into farms.
Montaione is also the city of the Truffle: every year between the end of October and the beginning of November takes place the "Tartufesta", a market exhibition that attracts many people from all over Italy and abroad.
