About
The Elsa (Italian pronunciation:) is a river in the Italian region of Tuscany. It is 63 km (39 mi) long. It flows northward to empty into the left bank of the Arno. From its source at Molli, Sovicille, the flow of the river is low until its reaches its major tributaries at Le Vene di Onci and Le Caldane, in Colle di Val d'Elsa. The mouth of the river divides the frazione Marcignana, of Empoli and Isola, of San Miniato. The basin of the Elsa has been continuously inhabited since at least the time of the Etruscan civilization. The first stretch of the river, fed almost exclusively by rainwater, flows across the Piano della Speranza and Pian dell'Olmino plains, within the municipalities of Casole d'Elsa and Colle di Val d'Elsa, and is known as the Elsa morta (Dead Elsa).
