Serviced Apartments in San Gimignano

What could be more idyllic than a serviced residence or holiday apartment in this beautiful, medieval walled town sitting comfortably on a flourishing green hill, surrounded by elegant cypress trees, in the Siena province of Tuscany.

San Gimignano offers a wonderful mix of ancient architecture, pretty town squares, absorbing museums, traditional handicrafts and superb wine, the ideal recipe for a perfect vacation in Italy.

Take a short stroll from your San Gamignano service apartment or aparthotel to the Piazza della Cisterna, the town centre, where you will discover some really pleasing architecture. Take in the Lovely Lupi Palace with it’s Tower of the Devil, the attractive Tortoli-Treccani Palace and the Salvestrini House which was built in the 1200s and has now been turned into a rather delightful hotel.

On Piazza del Duomo you will find the Cathedral of St. Maria Assunta which houses an incredible collection of gorgeous, religious works of art dating from the 14th  and 15th centuries. Note the stunning frescoes adorning the interior and the exquisite wooden sculptures. A really beautiful structure.

On the same square you will also find the Rognosa Tower once used as a prison and measuring in at a vast 50 metres high. Imagine being locked away in this monolith.

The Archaeological Museum is also well worth a look. Here you will be able to browse superb exhibits of relics and artefacts excavated in the local area including urns, lovely pieces of jewellery, vases, bowls and plates. Really intriguing.

If you get the chance you really should pay a visit to Casa & Cose situated in the medieval centre, a short distance from your apartment rental or holiday let in San Gimignano. Here you will find some gorgeous pieces of hand painted pottery including jugs and vases as well as some very beautiful items made from olive wood and carved by local craftsmen. The perfect memento of your vacation.
