Itinerary

1. 1

   Certaldo

   Pass by

   Certaldo is one of the most fascinating medieval villages in Valdelsa, developed on the summit of a hill and inhabited since the Etruscan era. The historic center preserves walls, towers, and the famous Palazzo Pretorio. It is known above all as the village of Giovanni Boccaccio, author of the Decameron, who lived part of his life here.

2. 2

   San Donnino

   Pass by

   San Donnino, in the territory of Certaldo, is a small locality nestled in the hills of the Valdelsa, between vineyards and Tuscan countryside. The area is linked to the history of the nearby Semifonte, a powerful medieval city destroyed by the Florentines in 1202. A short distance away rises the Dome of Saint Michael the Archangel, built in the sixteenth century in memory of the ancient center and inspired by the dome of the Florence Cathedral.
