Tuscany Vacation Villas

There are many people who choose to rent villas for their vacations in Tuscany. Our agency offers through this website a wide selection of villas in Tuscany, and here we have the pleasure to show you our villas in Monteriggioni in Valdelsa.

Monteriggioni is an Amazing castle built in 1200 to protect Siena from Florentine attacks. The town`s skyline is clearly recognizable thanks to its 14 towers and the walls.

Inside the town there is the great Piazza Roma with a well in the center and the Santa Maria Assunta Church, in Romanesque-Gothic style with an original facade and crypta. On the main square there are also many shops which sell typical products and cafes with outdoor tables where you can relax and enjoy the view of this impregnable fortress that protected Siena for over three centuries.
During the summer, if you want, you can go up and walk on the medieval walls looking at the beautiful country landscape. Dante Alighieri himself names in the Divine Comedy the Towers of Monteriggioni in the XXXI canto, from line 40 to 45.

The town celebrates its history with many cultural events. Among them, the most important is `Monteriggioni di Torri si corona` (Of turrets, Monteriggioni crowns his walls), a festival that is held every year in July when the town goes back to being as it was in the Middle Ages with people in costume, hawkers, drummers and local products.
