San Gimignano Towers

San Gimignano's UNESCO-listed skyline once counted dozens of towers and now preserves 14 medieval stone tower houses from the 12th to 14th centuries. Rival merchant families built them as defences and status symbols. This collection includes the 54-metre Torre Grossa, the twin Salvucci towers and the tower houses that frame Piazza della Cisterna and Piazza del Duomo.
