San Gimignano is a medieval walled town in the province of Siena in the Italian region of Tuscany. The town attracts many tourists, mainly because of its special medieval architecture.
San Gimignano is known for its fourteen towers that dominate the silhouette of the city. These were built between the 12th and 14th century by wealthy families. The towers served as houses and fortifications, but above all as prestige objects.
In 1990, the historic centre of San Gimignano was included in UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites. San Gimignano is one of the best preserved medieval towns in Tuscany and is therefore one of the busiest.
