History Sneak Peek

Soaring on a hilltop overlooking Valdelsa, in a territory most certainly inhabited in Etruscan times, the town in an outstanding testimonial to medieval Tuscan urban planning. Become a frre city in the 12th century, San Gimignano lived a golden age during which its distinctive urban and architectural features took shape, marked by soaring tower-houses which reflected prosperity of the merchant class, whose thriving trade depended largely on the presence of Via Francigena.In Dante's time the city numbered over sevnty towers, protected by a law that prohited their demolition except for the purpose of building more beautiful ones. Today there remain fifteen, among them the twin towers of Ardinghelli, the Torre Grossa (54 metres high) on the Palazzo del Popolo and the Rognosa on the Palazzo del Podestà.
