Surrounding Area
This Enchanting Area Of Tuscany Offers Many
Attractions. Also Its Vicinity To The Chianti
Area, Makes It Very Interesting And Worth To Be
Visited.
The Crete *pronounced Kr Y-tay*of Siena Is A Vast
And Mysterious Region South And East Of Siena
With Gentle Rolling Hills, Meandering Valleys,
Cypress Trees And Picturesque Stone Farmhouses.
Famed For Its Serene Beauty, The Crete Is Home To
Many Of The Most Significant And Interesting
Cities And Monuments In Tuscany.
Between Them We Have
Castiglione D*orcia With Origins That Go Back To
714, Belonging To The Aldobrandeschi Family.
Still Today It Is Possible To Admire Their
Fortress Called Rocca Tentennano.
To Visit Il Vecchietta Square, Church Of St.
Maddalena, Church Of St. Stefano And Degna.
Bagno Vignoni 4.5 Km Coming Down Towards The
South, On The Cassia Road.
Nowadays Bagno Vignoni Is Well-known And
Appreciated The World Over As An Esteemed Thermal
Locality Situated In The Heart Of The Val D*orcia
Artistic Natural And Cultural Park, A Context Of
Almost Immuted Beauty Through The Century.
4.5 Km Coming Down South, On The Cassia*,
The Characteristic Of Bagno Vigoni, Besides The
Thermal Waters, Is Its Unchanged Structure.
Infact, The Main Square Of This Town Is Not Like
It Can Be Imagined In Other Places, But It Is
Made By Boiling Water That Flows At 52 .
The Thermal Water Basin, By The Fact, Is In The
Middle Of The Of The Square, Closed On Three
Sides By The Town Walls, One Metre And A Half
Tall. All Around There Are Some Buildings
Realised By Bernardo Rossellino In Pope*s Pio Ii
Honor, And The Open Arcade Where S. Caterina Da
Siena Stopped.
To Enter In Bath Vignoni Is Like Passing Through
The Wall Of Time, To Immerse Itself In An Entire
Reality Cut Off From Our Century.
San Quirico D*orcia Is Of Origins, Undoubtedly,
Etruscan. This Is Testified By Findings Of
Cinerary Urns And Other Funeral Objects And
Vessels, Now Kept In The Etruscan Archeological
Museum In Siena. The First Explicit Reference To
San Quirico Was At The Time Of A Dispute, In 712,
Between The Diocese Of Siena And Arezzo For The
Possesion Of Some Parishes, Among Which Was San
Quirico In Osenna The Outcome Being A Decision,
Confirmed By King Liutprando, In Favor Of The
Church Of Arezzo.
The Colleggiata, The Present Church, Is Built
Upon The Old Parish Church, Which We Know Dated
From The 8th Century.
There Are Three Doorways. The First, Coming From
Siena, Is A Magnificent Example Of Romanesque,
Built Of Sandstone And Travertine.
On The Inside Of The Great Round Arch An
Extraordinary Wealth Of Symbolic Religious Themes
Can Be Seen.
The First Portale Di Mezzogiorno *south Door*,
Obviously Still In The Romanesque Style, Even
Though There Is A Hint Of The Gothic, Is
Attributed To Giovanni Pisano.
With Its Protruding Porch Supported On Two
Columns, And With Its Wonderful Balance, It
Epitomizes The Gassical, Romanesque And Gothic
Styles. The Bell-tower, As It Appears Today Was
Built At The End Of The 18th Century And Replaced
The Old Arched Bell-tower.
Next To The Collegiata And Opposite The Palazzo
Pretorio *magisterial Palace*, Adjoining Which,
Two Mediaevale Features Can Be Seen.
The Porte Del Morto *doors Of The Dead*, Rises
The Huge Mass Of The Palazzo Chigi.
It Was Built In The Second Half Of The 17th
Century By Cardinal Flavio Chigi, And Is Now The
Property Of The Town-council.
Unfortunately, Due To Negligence And Harm
Suffered During The Second Worid War, The Palace
Remains Seriously Damaged On Its External
Structure And In Its Richly Frescoed Rooms.
Montalcino One Of The Most Beautiful Cities In
South Tuscany.
Montalcino Was Rarely Loyal To Siena And Revolted
Against Her Authority Numerous Times.
It Was Finally Subdued In 1363 With The
Construction Of The Immense Fortress, The Rocca
Of Montalcino.
The Way That Leads To Montalcino Will Allow You
To Appreciate The True Beauty Of The Place.
Once Arrived At The Summit The Eyes Can Behold
