A central figure in the history of Montecatini Terme, Dr. Pietro Grocco was appointed in 1892 as Government Inspector and Sanitary Director of the thermal baths.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

With his intervention, the baths were reorganized and made an integrated system, demonstrating how the state should protect and enhance the thermal waters as a public good. His contribution laid the foundation for the modern Montecatini Spa complex. <\/p>\n\n

Located in the southern part of Montecatini Alto, on Mura Pietro Grocco Street, the eponymous cottage reflects the stature of its owner. Nestled in a lush garden, the building resembles a small castle: loggias, towers and jutting roofs define its refined aesthetic. Giuseppe Verdi, whose personal physician Grocco was, was also a guest here. <\/p>\n\n

The villa was designed by Pistoiese engineer Vittorio Bardini and opened on July 6, 1902. Its unique style and cozy atmosphere made it an exclusive and representative place of Montecatini prestige from the very beginning. <\/p>\n\n
