- Basilica Cateriniana Di S. Domenico - Nestled on the slopes of Siena’s historic center, the Basilica of San Domenico is surrounded by houses that “ascend” towards the Duomo. It stands as one of the city’s most significant churches, particularly due to its association with Saint Catherine of Siena. Constructed between 1226 and 1265 and expanded in the 14th century, the Basilica has experienced numerous events over the centuries, including fires, military occupations, earthquakes, and various modifications. These have contributed to its distinctive Gothic style, defined as Cistercian, and it features a unique relationship between its exterior and interior.
- Duomo di Siena - The Duomo di Siena, viewed from the outside, is a medieval church in Siena, Italy. Originally a Roman Catholic Marian church, it is now dedicated to the Assumption of Mary. Built between 1214 and 1263, it features a Latin cross structure, a modestly protruding dome, and an adjacent bell tower. Both the exterior and interior are adorned with blocks of white marble interspersed with thinner greenish-black stripes, representing the colors of Siena.
- Centro Storico di Siena - This is the heart of Siena, the core of the historic center recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and home to one of the world’s most beautiful squares. Piazza del Campo, shaped like a shell divided into nine sections, commemorates the Nine Lords who ruled the city at the end of the 13th century. It captivates with its elegance and unique form. Historically a green space hosting the market, Piazza del Campo is now the city’s living room and the open-air arena for the famous Palio, held twice a year. On July 2 and August 16, the piazza, paved in pietra serena, is covered with a layer of earth, a mix of tuff and sand, where the district horses compete in a swift race.
