Chiusdino

Chiusdino occupies the wooded heights of the Val di Merse in Tuscany, and its upland position has long tied the town to the rural valley below. The Merse River runs through this part of the Sienese countryside, where fields, woods and small settlements follow the rolling terrain. Chiusdino is closely associated with Saint Galgano: nearby stand the roofless 13th-century Cistercian Abbey of San Galgano and the round Hermitage of Montesiepi. Inside the hermitage, a sword embedded in stone is traditionally linked with the saint. Its historic centre retains the compact character of a Tuscan hill town.
