San Miniato is a small town with quiet streets and secret corners. What to see: - The church of San Domenico with its unfinished façade in Piazza del Popolo to see the frescoes. - The Cathedral or Duomo and the Matilde Tower, well known for its asymmetrical clock. - Palazzo Vescovile, an episcopal palace from the 13th century. - The Episcopal Seminary and Piazza del Seminario shaped like the winding ancient walls. - Friederick’s tower, the prison of Pier delle Vigne as can be read in Dante's Divine Comedy. - Convent of San Francesco, said to be founded by Saint Francis of Assisi. Even though the architecture is carming, San Miniato is escpecially famous for the food. Most important: truffle. Try some bistecca sprinkled by white truffle, accompanied by a local wine, it's gorgeous! You can also go in a guided truffle hunt yourself. Our favourite place to be: At many medieval festivals you will find leather works from San Miniato and there is even a festival dedicated to this craft: the Palio di Cuoio. We love to discover the shops and small workshops. 40 min. from the Villa Sermolli

A beautiful hilltop town with loads of history. Hike up to the old tower (rebuilt after its destruction in WWII) and have a picnic on the grassy lawn overlooking the surrounding valleys - at sunset! In November weekends they organize one of the biggest Italian truffle fairs.
