How this guide is prepared

Terra Routes makes editorial selections and planning suggestions. Visit order, duration and effort are estimates, not a personal inspection of every place. Check current opening hours, prices, services and access conditions with the venue or operator before your visit.

Make room for this

Check current opening times, tickets and access with the venue before visiting.

Crowds and heat can reduce the experience

Plan the last stretch into the city

Choose your places

This is a shortlist, not a requirement to visit every stop.

Montestaffoli Fortress

Montestaffoli Fortress

An open-air pause above the centre, with views of the towers.

Allow for uneven paving, slopes and exposed sections. Bring water and choose a cooler part of the day in hot weather. Check gates and return transport; an outdoor site is not necessarily open at all hours.

Open guide
Church of Sant’Agostino

Church of Sant’Agostino

Benozzo Gozzoli’s fresco cycle in a church away from the busiest squares.

Check visitor access separately from service times. Keep the visit quiet and dress appropriately for a working place of worship. Frescoes and chapels may have different admission arrangements from the main church.
