Begin your adventure in San Gimignano by climbing the Torre Grossa, the tallest tower in the town. Enjoy breathtaking 360-degree views of the town and the surrounding countryside from the top.
Next, explore the historic centre. Wander through the narrow streets and admire the medieval architecture, including the famous towers that earned the town its nickname “Manhattan of the Middle Ages.”
Visit Piazza del Duomo, the main square, home to the stunning Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta and the adjacent bell tower. Then, discover the Piazza della Cisterna, a picturesque square featuring a well and beautiful buildings, making it a great spot for photos.
Tour the Palazzo Comunale, the town hall that houses the Civic Museum, which features art and artefacts from San Gimignano's history. Then, visit the Museum of Sacred Art, located in the former Church of Sant'Agostino, showcasing religious art and artefacts.
Take a walk on the town's ancient walls, which offer scenic walking paths with stunning views of the surrounding countryside. For a more macabre experience, visit the Museum of Torture, which displays instruments of torture from the medieval period.
