Highlights
Step inside one of Italy's finest examples of Roman-Gothic architecture — the enchanting Cathedral of Siena — and admire striking frescoes by Donatello, Michelangelo, and Pinturicchio. More than a million visitors pass through its doors every year, as impressive as Florence's Duomo, built between 1214 and 1263. Don't miss the Piccolomini Library, built in honor of Pope Pius II, and explore the Duomo Nuovo (New Cathedral) too. Look down as well as up: the cathedral floor is a work of art, featuring 56 scenes engraved in marble by 40 artists between 1369 and 1547. It's visible in its entirety from 27 June to 31 July and 19 August to 15 November 2026; at other times, some parts are covered. A digital audio guide to the Cathedral's interior is already included with your ticket and can be downloaded as soon as you step inside. Travelers can also enjoy an extra digital audio guide to explore Siena and San Gimignano.

About Siena
Siena is a medieval Tuscan hill city of red-brown brick, known for its shell-shaped main square, its striped cathedral and the twice-yearly Palio.
Siena was Florence's great rival in the Middle Ages, and its historic centre, a UNESCO site, still looks much as it did then. Il Campo, the shell-shaped square, slopes down to the Palazzo Pubblico and its slender tower, the Torre del Mangia. The cathedral, striped in white and dark green marble, has a pavement of inlaid scenes and a library of painted manuscripts.
Top-ranked sights in Siena: Piazza del Campo, Siena Cathedral (Duomo di Siena), Mangia Tower (Torre del Mangia).
