Immersed in the green heart of the Val d'Orcia, Pienza stands before your eyes like a Renaissance monument solidified over time. Pope Pius II wanted it and built it as an ideal city, and since then its beauty has been preserved intact. As you stroll through its silent streets, savor the serenity and beauty of a village where art and history blend with the breathtaking Tuscan landscape.

The small town of Pienza is somewhat typical of Tuscany, but is still a very special gem. With just over 2,000 inhabitants, it is so unique that it is an important sightseeing stop on the itineraries of major tour operators. Pienza belongs to the province of Siena.
