Tuscany is a special land where culture and an immense historical and artistic heritage are the main protagonists, and it is a region that can be considered an open museum. From small towns to major cities, famous piazzas to the rural countryside, visitors are always in front of a part of the past that has characterized and has helped shape this great country. So much so that UNESCO has declared 6 places in Tuscany as World Heritage Sites: the historic centers of Siena, Florence, Pienza and San Gimignano, as well as Piazza del Duomo in Pisa and the countryside of the Val d'Orcia. These places have received this prestigious title because of their uniqueness, authenticity and integrity.
Pisa - Piazza del Duomo
The square is famous throughout the world and known as, Campo dei Miracoli. It is the architectural perfection of the Pisan Romanesque style, a combination of classical motifs, early Christian and eastern Lombard styles. The monuments that appear here -the Duomo, the Bell Tower, the Baptistry and the Cemetery - are of a beauty that leaves visitors breathless.
Florence - Historic Center
Since the Middle Ages and continuing over the centuries, Florence became a center of beautiful creations and major artistic and architectural sites that have served to teach future artists. The majesty of the city derives from the grandeur of such works as the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, the Church of Santa Croce, the Palazzo degli Uffizi, and masterworks by artists such as Giotto, Brunelleschi, Botticelli and Michelangelo.
Siena – Historic Center
The city, with its monuments and medieval Gothic style, is the greatest testimony of the very high modes of expression achieved by its artists. The most important attraction in the historic center is the Piazza del Campo, famous for its shell shape and the where the famous Palio is held between the local districts. Walking through the streets of the center is like reliving a past era.
Pienza – Historic Center
On the request of Pope Pius II, the center became a symbol of perfection and the architectural style of the Renaissance. It was built as an 'ideal city' that responded to the humanistic thinking of the period, with spaces and scenes of striking beauty, designed by Alberti and his collaborator Rossellino.
San Gimignano - Historic Center
The city is known across the world for its beautiful towers, history, art and culture. Immersed in the Tuscan countryside, it has a unique identity and it's medieval city centre is very well conserved.
Val d'Orcia
A unique landscape of flat limestone plains from which rise hills. A place where nature is in perfect harmony with Man, a close, centuries-long relationship that gave rise to innovative agricultural landscapes and the Via Francigena, along which visotrs can admire abbeys, villages and historic shrines.
Come marvel at the wonders this region has to offer!
