Marvel at the magic of Pitigliano, one of the most spectacular and charming villages in the Tuscan Maremma.
On this 2-hour guided walking tour, you can explore underground Pitigliano and take in the town's most significant historic buildings.
I will guide you through a labyrinth of cobblestone streets, flower-lined stairways, and panoramic terraces that offer unique views of the surrounding valleys.
The real highlight of the tour will be the fascinating journey through the history of the Jewish community in Pitigliano. From the 16th century onwards, the village became a safe haven for Jews fleeing the Papal State, giving rise to an extraordinary peaceful coexistence and a cultural fusion that earned Pitigliano the title of “Little Jerusalem.”
We will visit the Synagogue and the Jewish Quarter, which is entirely carved out of the tuff: the Ritual Bath, the Unleavened Bread Oven, the Cellar, and the Kosher Slaughterhouse.
