Castiglion Fiorentino

Castiglion Fiorentino is best known in Tuscany for its medieval historic centre crowning a hill above the Val di Chiana. The Cassero area contains archaeological traces of the town’s Etruscan and Roman past, while its archaeological museum preserves locally discovered finds. Below, the Val di Chiana unfolds as a broad cultivated plain; inside the old walls, steep lanes rise towards the fortress and civic squares. Castiglion Fiorentino also maintains the Palio dei Rioni, an annual contest between its districts that brings historical costume and local traditions into the centre.
