This area is named after the ancient parish of San Giovanni Battista in Corsano, about 7 km westwards from Monteroni. It is near a hill which is the last northern layer of the mount of Casciano, on the east of which it flows the stream Fusola. In this place there was already since the X century a farm of the hermitage of Montemaggio, which was given to it in 963 by Berengario II, king of Italy. Today it is a small village which is mainly made up of villas and restored farmhouses. There is an historic medieval evidence represented by a big fortified tower at the entrance of the village along the road from Siena. Being the place near the castle of Grotti, we imagine that the tower was more a look-out point all over the surrounding territory, than being part of a castle which don’t exist anymore.
