View of San Gimignano

Highlight • Viewpoint

For the most impressive overview of San Gimignano, it is worth taking a detour to the lookout point outside of town. 1 hour return walk from the northernmost point of the city (Porta San Matteo). This is the only way to see all 15 of the city's surviving towers together.

Cistern Square

Highlight • Historical Site

San Gimignano is a must-see if you're in the area. A small historical town situated on a hilltop. Very nice streets with many stylish and high-quality shops and restaurants. Very clean and well worth seeing, especially because of its many high turrets and narrow streets. The town has a special charm and is bearable even at high temperatures, as there are many shady alleys and places…

Collegiate Church of Santa Maria Assunta (Duomo of San Gimignano)

Highlight • Religious Site

San Gimignano, a hill town surrounded by 13th century walls.
In the historic center it is not recommended to continue on the bicycle because it is often very crowded. One of the stages of the Via Francigena passes right here, but a visit to the historic center should not be missed

Torre Grossa, San Gimignano

Highlight • Monument

Beautiful tower can be rented. You can also stay overnight in the tower, we didn't do that.
