San Gimignano Maps and Orientation
(San Gimignano, Tuscany, Italy, IT)



A beautiful hilltop town located directly north of central Italy and surrounded by medieval walls, San Gimignano resides within the region on Tuscany and within the Siena province. San Gimignano is therefore well placed to allow tourists to see many wonderful Tuscan sights and is a relatively short distance from Florence and its breathtaking Duomo cathedral.

The Porta San Giovanni is the main gateway into San Gimignano and resides at the southern side of the town. The adjacent Via San Giovanni leads towards the town centre in a northerly direction, reaching the central squares of the Piazza del Duomo and also the Piazza Della Cisterna. Both the Piazzadelle Erbe and the Piazza Pecori are also nearby and in this part of the town.
