We came here as part of our Heart of Tuscany driving tour. Found it to be lacking in many ways, especially after visiting other Tuscan towns. The town needs better signage and some direction on what to see, like getting to the hot springs below the town. Left to our own devise left is looking for more and wanting to visit another town. Wouldn't recommend the visit.
The entire town is a pleasant place to explore for a couple hours. I rather liked the wire mesh sculptures that surrounded the hot bath and dotted the town too...
Quite fun for my 10 year old. Blue water, caves, lizards. We hiked down following the water fall. It was a lovely Tuscan day.
Bagno Vignoni is a wonderful town to visit and this is one of the many wonderful sights, that I think is not to be issed. Mulino translated means old grain mill. The park is interesting.
Don't think it is only industrial - in fact the industrial remains are only noticeable if you hunt for them, though there are several chunks of old masonry. We were taken here because of the typical Tuscan landscape visible from its elevated position - and that was fantastic! However, the star feature for me is the historical evidence of mills which used the thermal spring water to operate all year round. The thermal springs still run and there is warm water flowing in channels across the site.
There are several information boards with English translation, but they are all a bit battered and lack a good diagram of the industrial remains.
This is a very odd place in a positive way. The warm water from the springs on top of the mountaion engineered through the years with small canals, pools and waterfalls. Amazing place and not something you see everywhere.
