Local Attractions near Casolare di Remignoli
- Panzanello wine producers (19.5 km) - The Panzanello wine producers are located right in the heart of the Chianti wine-growing region. The four main wines they produce are the Chianti Classico, the Chianti Classico Riserva, Manuzio (red) and Tregaio (white) and they also produce an excellent Extra Virgin Olive Oil. You can sample all their products at the vineyard farmhouse and even book a tour of the wine cellar where the classic wines are still maturing.
- Siena Cathedral (27.16 km) - Stately Siena Cathedral is one of the most beautiful churches in Tuscany. The marble façade was designed by Pisano, and inside you will find works by Donatello, Michelangelo and Bernini. However, it is the incredible use of perspective in Pinturicchio's frescoes in the Piccolomini Library that will really have you astounded.
- Santa Maria Hospital (27.22 km) - The huge Santa Maria Hospital was the main medical institution in Siena for nearly 900 years. Considered the third most important monument in Siena (behind the Cathedral and the Palazzo Pubblico), the hospital is now an excellent museum containing numerous works of art. The highlight is the Sala del Pellegrinaio (Pilgrimâs Room) which boasts some amazing frescoes detailing the history of the hospital, but also worth a look are the church of Santissima Annunziata (which contains the oldest organ in Europe), the Cappella del Manto and the Oratorio di Santa Caterina della Notte. The medieval hospital also houses Sienaâs Archaeological Museum, containing mainly Etruscan and Roman exhibits.
- San Domenico (26.87 km) - The huge red-brick basilica of San Domenico, set on a small hill in Siena, can be seen for miles around. As the former headquarters of the Dominican movement in Siena, the history of the church is closely related to Saint Catherine of Siena, one of its most famous adherents. Inside, the church is airy and contains frescoes by Lippo Memmi and Andrea Vanni. However, pride of place goes to the chapel of Saint Catherine (patron saint of Italy) which contains her head and finger on full view.
- Saint Catherine's House (26.87 km) - Saint Catherineâs house was turned into a shrine following her canonisation. This was the house where Catherine confined herself in order to avoid entering a convent (the only option for an unmarried girl in Medieval and Renaissance Italy). Although the original house has been substantially modified (e.g. the kitchen is now an oratory), you can still visit the âcellâ where Catherine confined herself and which now contains some beautiful frescoes. In front of the house you may be fortunate enough to see some of the youths from the Goose contrada of Siena practising the medieval art of flag-throwing.
- Banchi di Sopra confectioners (27.14 km) - To sample some of the typical cuisine of Siena, visit the confectioners along the Via Banchi di Sopra. Traditional Sienese specialities include: panforte (hard cake made of dried fruit and nuts), ricciarelli, cantucci (almond-flavoured biscuits) and cavallucci (candied fruit and nut biscuits). These can all be bought at the Conca dâOro branch of the Pasticcerie Nannini, the oldest confectioners in Siena, on the via Banchi di Sopra. Along the street there are also a number of excellent gelaterie where you can try some authentic Italian ice-cream.
- Enoteca Italiana wine collection (26.51 km) - The Enoteca Italiana, located in Sienaâs Fortezza Medicea, is a huge wine store in which you can sample and buy all the best varieties from every Italian region. Over 1000 wines are stocked, all chosen for their superior quality, and an experienced sommelier will help you to choose the perfect wine for each occasion. In the summer you can sample the wines and local specialities whilst sitting under the pergolas in the grounds of the Fortezza and there is also the possibility of booking a wine tour to one of the local vineyards. The Enoteca also hosts a variety of cultural events promoting a particular wine or region.
- Siena football stadium (26.71 km) - Siena's Stadio Artemio Franchi is home to Italian Serie A football team Siena. Matches are played at the 13,000 seater stadium almost every other weekend during the football season, but the small capacity means that you will need to get tickets in advance.
- Collegiata (3.22 km) - The Cathedral of San Gimignano (called the Collegiata) can boast the most elaborate frescoes of any church in Tuscany. The frescoes detailing Biblical stories beginning with the Flood right through until the Last Judgement were painted by important artists such as Gozzoli and Taddeo di Bartolo. The Chapel of Saint Fina also houses a stunning fresco cycle by Ghirlandaio portraying the life of the saint. The piazza in front of the Collegiata is the favoured spot to start a walking tour of the beautiful medieval town of San Gimignano.
- Civic Museum, San Gimignano (3.22 km) - The Palazzo del Popolo is the home of the excellent San Gimignano Civic Museum housing a wealth of Sienese and Tuscan art. Artists featured include Lippi, Taddeo di Bartolo and Pinturicchio and the museum also contains Lippo Memmiâs masterpiece Maestà . Most of the rooms in the palazzo are frescoed and the most notable are the hunting scenes in the Sala di Dante. Next to the Palazzo del Popolo is the Torre Grossa, the only one of San Gimignanoâs remaining 14 towers (there were over 70) that you can climb and from where you have an excellent view over the town and the Tuscan countryside.
