Hiking

An outdoor Renaissance arcade built by Pope Pius II in the 15th century to honor his family. The Piccolomini family played a significant role in the political and cultural life of Siena. The family's importance was further cemented by the construction of the loggia, which served as a public symbol of their power and influence.
