The village of San Gimignano is located in the province of Siena and is characterized by an architectural structure that dates back to very ancient times. The Etruscan and Roman origins of the town are testified by various documents and the development of the historical centre is also due to the presence of the Via Francigena (still passable), which crossed the whole length of the town, bringing pilgrims, trade and increasing well-being and wealth.

Today San Gimignano is famous all over the world, as well as being a UNESCO World Heritage Site, thanks to its architectural structure, historic buildings and ancient churches, museums and elegant buildings where you can admire artistic and cultural treasures of great value. As far as food is concerned, the town offers the possibility to taste typical dishes of the Tuscan tradition, accompanied by excellent wine to satisfy even the most demanding palates.
