history
The place was first documented in 1108 in the maps of the Badia Ardenghesca (Abbazia di San Lorenzo al Lanzo). The place initially belonged as a fief to the Counts Ardengheschi , then the place was gradually subjugated by the Republic of Siena between 1179 and 1254 . The Buonsignori family from Senese took power in the 13th century, the Malavolti ruled until the end of the 14th century. The city walls were built between the second half of the 12th century and the beginning of the 13th century, only remnants of the two city gates ( Porta Senese and Porta Grossetana ) remain. The place went under the protection of Florence in 1390 when Orlando Malavolti asked the Fiorentines to do so. In the second half of the 16th century the place belonged to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany . Until August 1, 1838 Pari had its own Podestà , then the place Campagnatico was subordinated. From 1920 to 1926 the place was also autonomous, then it came to Paganico, a place that then together with Civitella Marittima became the municipality of Civitella Paganico.
