Torre dei Becci - San Gimignano - Toscana

Source: Willem Vandenameele

Description

En af de fjorten bevarede middelalderlige tårne i den toskanske perle San Gimignano er Becci-familiens tårn. Det ligger ved den antikke Arco dei Becci og er et af vartegnene på Piazza della Cisterna. Historien om dette tårn går tilbage til det 13. århundrede, ligesom historien om det tilstødende palæ, som er tilgængeligt fra Via degli Innocenti. Tårnet med en meget simpel kvadratisk base er kun oplyst i den øverste del gennem svage, meget smalle sprækker.

Becci-familien var en af de førende lokale købmænd, der også besad betydelige offentlige embeder under San Gimignanos storhedstid. Familietårnet er en af de højeste – og dermed mest markante – bygninger i "middelalderens Manhattan".
