Casa Rossa Ximenes, in the swamps of Diaccia-Botrona. The swamps constitute
a residue of a much widerspread humid area, which went from Castiglione
della Pescaia to Grosseto, and is characterised by a fusion of the marine
waters and the elevated salt content with the fresh waters of the Bruna and
Ombrone rivers. Following the drainage in relatively recent times, a large
part of the area has been transformed into a cultivable plain. The remaining
part has been declared a natural reserve, in which it is possible to visit
the museum set in the inside itself of the Casa Rossa Ximenes, go
bird-watching and spend a pleasant day admiring the splendid lanscape.
