Located in the tuff area, in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma, the splendid town of Pitigliano is counted among the most beautiful villages in Italy and boasts the Orange Flag for tourism. Affectionately called "little Jerusalem", this community welcomed a significant Jewish presence from the 16th century. Today, Pitigliano stands out as one of the most fascinating historic villages in Italy, with its Etruscan cave streets and evocative necropolises.

Wonderful mediaeval Italian village in the same style as Sorano, built upwards from its rocky perch, with spectacular 360° views. An architectural marvel that is worth a visit where you can easily find tasty, local cuisine.

The most beautiful of the tuff cities with very nice lanes, shops and a synagogue and museum that testifies to Jewish life ("Little Jerusalem")
