Property 1651263791 - MONTERIGGIONI

11 Bedrooms

Location and Surrounding Area
Set in the charming hilltop town of Monteriggioni, this magnificent Palazzo is ideally located to explore Tuscany’s cultural highlights and spectacular natural wonders. Situated in the heart of Chianti, just a stone’s throw from the enchanting towns of Siena and Florence, Property 1651263791 is the perfect base for day trips to Tuscany's most beautiful towns and provides a unique opportunity to admire its iconic landscapes while soaking up the region’s rich historical and cultural heritage.

From Dante Alighieri to Assassin’s Creed, Monteriggioni has captured imaginations for centuries. Surrounded by olive groves and vineyards, Monteriggioni is a perfectly preserved walled medieval castle-town close to Siena. Perched above a green valley, Monteriggioni was originally a castle shaped to fit the hill on which it has stood since the 11th century. Today, its towers remain visible from afar. The castle-town retains its medieval charm with old walls still standing and narrow, cobbled lanes that have barely changed over the years.

In just fifteen minutes by car, you can reach the medieval town of Siena. Its ancient red-brick buildings, the scallop-shaped main square Piazza del Campo, and the Cathedral Square dominated by the zebra-striped Duomo make it a must-visit for anyone travelling to Tuscany. Effectively an open-air museum celebrating the Gothic, Siena boasts monuments that have retained both their medieval forms and their exceptional art collections, providing plenty to marvel at.

In twenty-five minutes by car, you can visit the walled town of San Gimignano, one of Italy’s best-preserved medieval villages. From a distance, San Gimignano resembles a town from a Renaissance painting: a ring of 13th-century walls enclosing tall, teetering stone towers. The towers are instantly recognisable, and the art treasures within its walls are equally remarkable. Though the town is small, there is ample art, architecture, and fine food to keep you occupied for more than one day.

In one hour by car, you can reach Florence, a treasure trove of art with an astonishing contemporary vibe. Beyond its extraordinary artistic heritage, a testament to centuries of civilisation, the best way to enjoy Florence is to stroll along the riverside avenues at sunset or to get lost among the city’s myriad alleyways in the bohemian Oltrarno or the narrow streets of San Niccolò, where it feels like you’ve stepped back in time.
