At the beginning of the XIVth century, the Chiesa della Madonna degli Alemanni, a very ancient church with an underneath oratory, was standing on the very spot of the hotel. The church was on the present hall floor, while the oratory was on the lower floor. The two structures were connected by a staircase which is still linking the two floors.
In the origin, the church was a place of cult and devotion: people went there to worship a miraculous simulacrum representing the Virgin's bust with the Child (Madonna della Manna). It is a XIVth century terracotta which is actually on display in the Duomo di Cortona.
The cult of the Madonna degli Alemanni was so widespread and deeply felt that the church proved to be too narrow to host its devotees.
Besides the charm of its history, the building enjoys a scenic position: its rooms overlook the stunning landscape of Valdichiana, with the Amiata and Cetona mountain, the Trasimeno Lake, the gentle outline of the hills surrounding the city-walls and Cortona's steeples and towers.
Villa Marsili is situated within Cortona's ancient walls and retains all the grace and charm of its original architectural structure.
