チェルタルドのおすすめツーリングルート

One of the most beautiful places in Italy.

Il Corno Castle is located in San Pancrazio, in the municipality of San Casciano in Val di Pesa, in the heart of Tuscany. Built in the 12th century by the Florentine Del Corno family as a defensive garrison between Florence and Siena, the castle was expanded and modified over the centuries. In the 16th century, it passed to the Strozzi family, who consolidated the structure and the surrounding lands, creating a unified core of farms. The building still retains medieval features, such as towers and stone walls, alongside later structures with broad façades and regular openings, typical of Tuscan rural residences. Today, the estate is surrounded by vineyards and olive groves and hosts an agriturismo, offering a combination of history, architecture, and the typical landscape of the Florentine countryside.

Sir…back to the past! Like knights on the horse of steel, carbon or aluminum along the path that leads to the fort (the city of San Gimignano).

Porta San Matteo is a historic gate in San Gimignano. The gate, built in 1262, is named after Via San Matteo, the main road that passes through the gate. This road was the part of the Francigena that ran through the city from north to south. Along Via di San Matteo there are remarkable buildings such as the Pesciolini House-Tower, a clipped tower from the thirteenth century; the beautiful Chiesa di San Bartolo; the Cancelleria Palazzo. After passing through the gate, a fascinating tour of houses, palaces and medieval towers awaits. The gate was built in the Sienese style and offers a fascinating view of the city as it would have looked in the Middle Ages.

The Collegiata Di Santa Maria Assunta, also known as the Duomo di San Gimignano, is an important church in San Gimignano. Consecrated in 1148, this church is known for its important cycles of Renaissance frescoes by artists such as Domenico Ghirlandaio, Benozzo Gozzoli, Taddeo di Bartolo, Lippo Memmi and Bartolo di Fredi. Originally built in the 10th century, the church grew in importance during the early 12th century due to its location on the pilgrimage route to Rome, the Via Francigena. The interior of the church is famous for its frescoes, depicting scenes from both the Old and New Testaments.
