The history around Castello Bonaria
- Etruscan and Roman times – The Campigliese hills are rich in minerals; Etruscan furnaces and mine shafts can still be seen at the San Silvestro park.
- Etruscan and Roman times – The thermal springs at Venturina are already known as Aquae Populoniae.
- 8th–9th century – Traces of a village appear at Campiglia, where the medieval settlement takes shape.
- 1004 – The first document naming Campiglia records Count Gherardo II della Gherardesca giving half of its castle to the monastery of Santa Maria di Serena.
- 10th–11th century – The Della Gherardesca found Rocca San Silvestro to control the local copper and silver-bearing lead mines.
- 12th century – The tower-shaped buildings of the Rocca di Campiglia rise above the village, probably built by Pisan craftsmen.
- Late 13th–15th century – The Rocca is held by a military garrison during disputes between the counts of Campiglia and Pisa; Florence later takes over.
- 1863 – The Maremma railway opens and Campiglia's station is placed near Venturina, which then grows quickly.
- 2008 – The park of the Rocca di Campiglia opens on 7 June after a major restoration.
No Wikipedia article or other published source on the building of Castello Bonaria itself could be found, and Expedia does not give a construction date. The history above is therefore that of the surrounding area, the Val di Cornia, which explains the wine, mining and thermal traditions you will meet during a stay.
In the Middle Ages the Rocca di Campiglia was the seat of the Della Gherardesca counts, later known as the counts of Campiglia. Today its keep and museum can be visited, and from the top the view covers the whole Val di Cornia.
