| Volterra |
 |
|
| Volterra is a wonderful small town that has preserved to date a remarkable old town |
|
| centre, a real Etruscan, Roman, Medieval and Renaissance art jewel, and that |
|
| overlooks, from a hill, 550 metres high, the whole Cecina valley, as far as the sea. The |
|
| small town, almost entirely enclosed within the thirteenth century city walls, preserves |
|
| Roman ruins and Medieval buildings as the Cathedral and the Palazzo dei Priori |
|
| located in the homonymous square. Beyond the monuments and many artistic and |
|
| cultural testimonies evidences, in Volterra there is museum structures of remarkable |
|
| artistic and historic interest: the Museo Guarnacci, the Pinacoteca, the Museo Civico |
|
| of Palazzo Minucci-Solaini and the Museo Diocesano. Volterra is a city to live intensely, |
|
| to discover little by little, with its atmospheres, its contrasts, and the palpitating heart |
|
| of civilization and a culture that make it “unique” and unrepeatable. |
