Monteriggioni is a medieval walled town situated on a natural hilltop in the province of Siena, Tuscany. Founded in the early 13th century by the Republic of Siena, the town served as a strategic defensive outpost against Florence during the age-old rivalry between these two city-states.
The town's most distinctive feature is its perfectly preserved circular walls, complete with 14 square towers, which have remained largely unchanged since their construction. The fortified structure was so impressive that it was mentioned in Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy.
Today, Monteriggioni maintains its historical character with its small medieval square, Piazza Roma, and the Church of Santa Maria Assunta. The town offers visitors a glimpse into Tuscan medieval architecture and military engineering, while hosting various cultural events that celebrate its rich history.
