Siena Specials

We skipped the line at the entrance thanks to the reservation we made in advance through Headout. The cathedral is a true gem of Tuscan medieval Gothic architecture, built in 1179 and filled with intricate details and works of art—some of which were created years later by Michelangelo himself, as you’ll discover while touring the interior with the audio guide (which is very useful and easy to use). The library is another unexpected surprise to find inside a Gothic cathedral. It’s truly a wonderful visit to this gem of medieval architecture. It’s worth spending 90 minutes exploring it and admiring its contents. One of the few cathedrals where even the floor is adorned with impressive artistic scenes. Art is everywhere. A must-see if you’re in Siena.

Booking the ticket and the admission process went smoothly. Visiting the cathedral was more than impressive; it will remain unforgettable to me...
