It gets pretty hilly

Certaldo Funicular to the Historic Center

Highlight • Structure

From here a small lift leads to the higher-lying old town. It is so "useless" in short that this "pointlessness" has a special charm. Clear recommendation!

Ascent to the Historic Center of Certaldo

Highlight • Historical Site

It's an entertaining walk up to the old town. The path is also suitable for children. You can comfortably descend at the other end of the old town. Alternatively, you can take the lift.

The city gate Porta Alberti was the southeastern entrance to Francigena and was reached from it via the Costa Alberti street. The cable car station that leads to Certaldo Basso is now located at Porta Alberti.
