Monteriggioni Suite

general: This delightful cottage built entirely of stone, as is tradition in Tuscany, is only 2 km from the Monteriggioni Castle and is situated near the Abbadia Isola abbey. The origins of the abbey date back to the year 1000 and is located along the ancient Via Francigena, the ancient road that medieval pilgrims travelled along to go to Rome from all over Europe and which, known only by scholars until the late 1990s, has now become an itinerary that attracts tourists who love history and art. The surrounding countryside is the classic Sienese landscape with its numerous shades of colors known as the "land of Siena ''. From the house you can also enjoy picturesque views of the castle walls of Monteriggioni, inside of which you can breathe in the air of the Middle Ages. The possibilities are endless: in addition to Siena, can quickly reach San Gimignano, Volterra and Florence.
