• Piazza del Campo - Piazza Il Campo has been the heart of Siena since Roman times, where the forum was located. The square was repaved during the rule of the Government of the Nine, a semi-democratic group in power from 1287 to 1355, divided into nine sections to commemorate the Government and symbolize the Madonna’s cloak that protects the city. Piazza Il Campo hosts the renowned Palio di Siena horse race twice a year, on July 2nd and August 16th, a highly anticipated event for the Sienese people. In the square, visitors can admire the Fonte Gaia, the city’s largest fountain, originally adorned with sculptures by Jacopo Della Quercia. The fountain seen today is a replica made of Carrara marble, which is more durable than the original Montagnola Senese Marble used by Della Quercia (the restored original can be viewed in the Museum Complex of Santa Maria della Scala).
• Duomo di Siena - The main church, known as the Duomo, is situated in the square above Piazza Il Campo. This stunning Gothic-style complex houses numerous treasures by Donatello, Pisano, and Michelangelo, as well as frescoes by the renowned Pinturicchio. The Cathedral’s beauty is so striking that its exterior alone leaves a lasting impression. Constructed between 1214 and 1263, it features a Latin cross structure, a modest dome, and an adjacent bell tower. Both the exterior and interior are adorned with white marble blocks interspersed with thinner greenish-black stripes, representing Siena’s colors.
• Torre del Mangia - Located in Piazza Il Campo in Siena, the Torre del Mangia is the civic tower of the Town Hall. It ranks among the tallest ancient Italian towers (14th century), reaching 88 meters at the height of the last battlements. According to Ranuccio Bianchi Bandinelli, the Torre del Mangia, despite starting from a lower ground level, reaches the same height as the Cathedral of Siena’s bell tower, symbolizing the balance between heavenly and earthly power, with neither overpowering the other.
• San Gimignano - San Gimignano is perched on a hill in the Val d’Elsa, amidst a serene landscape of vineyards and olive trees. Encircled by walls from the 12th/13th century with a 2,000-meter circumference and five gates, it retains its medieval town appearance, primarily built of bricks and dominated by fourteen stone towers. The city’s origins remain uncertain, but San Gimignano is situated on a site inhabited by the Etruscans since at least the 3rd century B.C. The hill was strategically chosen for its dominance (324 m above sea level) in the upper Valley d’Elsa. On the slopes of Poggio del Comune (624 m above sea level), the ruins of Castelvecchio, a Lombard period village, can be found. The first mention of San Gimignano dates back to 929. Tradition holds that the name derives from the holy bishop of Modena, Gemignano of the 4th century, who defended the village from Attila’s occupation.
• Piazza della Cisterna - Named after the 13th-century cistern at its center. On the south side, the Silvestrini house (now a hotel) dates back to the 13th century. Nearby, at the entrance to Via del Castello, is the Palazzo Tortoli, featuring two orders of Gothic double windows (14th century). Almost opposite stands the Devil’s Tower. The northwestern corner of the square, leading to Piazza del Duomo, is dominated by the twin towers of the Ardinghelli, the city’s most powerful Guelph family.
• Collegiata di Santa Maria Assunta - Duomo di San Gimignano - Framed by the austere façade of the Collegiata, ancient buildings, and seven imposing towers, the Collegiate Church of Santa Maria Assunta, or Duomo, is a Romanesque building from the 12th century, expanded in the 1400s by Giuliano da Maiano, who restored the presbytery. The facade was significantly redone in the 19th century. The interior is entirely frescoed.
