Wedding in San Gimignano

Wedding in San Gimignano.

San Gimignano is certainly one of the most famous and picturesque villages of Tuscany. The 14 towers of S. Gimignano reign over the village. On a clear day you can certainly recognize this small village from far away.

One time this walled town was surrounded by 72 towers. During the middle ages it was the status symbol for noble families to build personal towers for protection and as a proof of their wealth and power.

 

The central piazza is simply a jewel: incredible towers, old buildings and a lovely 13th century well. Rich in art and history San Gimignano is a pleasure to wander…do not miss to visit the Romanesque Collegiata di Santa Maria Assunta which is a treasure trove of fine frescoes. The views from the Torre Grossa, the biggest tower in town, are absolutely breathtaking.

 

San Gimignano is the perfect choice for those couples who want to enjoy the wonders of the most enchanting Tuscan countryside and get married in the most picturesque and famous village of Tuscany
