Meet Leonardo & Friends
ACCADEMIA VINCIANA
Welcome to the Architecturally and Philosophically
Ideal and Real House of the Genius
toghether with his friends, architects, painters and philosophers.
STORY
Thanks to the historical research of a young italian researcher, Prof. Roberto Baldo, we discovered that Leonardo had conceived and organized a real network as an Academy around him, on the model of the Neoplatonic Academy of Lorenzo the Magnifico and Marsiglio Ficino housed in Villa Careggi, integrating philosophical research with his artistic, scientific and engineering knowledge.
The research on this reserved and secret Academy also led to the discovery of a Villa built following Leonardo's designs and probably commissioned by the Magnifico Agostino Chigi, to organize and start an ambitious geoengineering project for the regimentation of the waters of the Val di Chiana to make the Arno navigable and create a new trade route.
FOUNDATION
Accademia vinciana is promoting a Learning and Experience platform, inviting some of the best International Institution expert on Leonardo, together with some italian Universities and Academies, for a project of a new integrated Campus in Val di Chiana, centered in this enigmatic Leonardo's Villa, for an interdisciplinary training offer, transversal cultural activities and initiatives with humanistic, philosophical, scientific and technical knowledge, declining the precious historical heritage of the manuscripts and testimonies of the historical Leonardo da Vinci Academy
