Porta San Matteo - San Gimignano - Toscana

Source: Willem Vandenameele

Description

Porta San Matteo, nået via hovedvejen, er mere typisk for San Gimignano. Via San Matteo har fået sit navn fra denne port.

Vejen var den del af Francigena, der løb gennem byen fra nord til syd. Langsomt voksede et helt kvarter op omkring denne vej. De bygninger, der stadig står i dag, er næsten alle fra det 13. århundrede og giver et fascinerende indblik i byen, som den ville have set ud i middelalderen.

Porta di San Matteo blev bygget i 1262 i sienesisk stil. Bag passagen venter en fascinerende rundtur blandt huse, paladser og middelalderlige tårne. Langs Via di San Matteo ligger det storslåede Pesciolini hus-tårn, et halshugget tårn fra det trettende århundrede; den smukke Chiesa di San Bartolo; Cancelleria Palazzo; Torri Gemelle dei Salvucci; for endelig at ankomme til Piazza della Cisterna.
