Piazza Pio II

Piazza Pio II

El Papa Pio II quiso reconvertir la antigua ciudad medieval, en un ejemplo de ciudad renacentista en todo su esplendor, pero su muerte no permitió su completa finalización. La mayor monumentalidad de Pienza se concentra en esta plaza presidida por la catedral de Sta M Assunta. El ayuntamiento o Palazzo Pubblico con sus arcos en la planta baja, y la torre del reloj, y el magnífico Palazzo Piccolomini con su pozo y la sala de armas, completan esta plaza, una de las más bonitas de la Toscana.

Most monumentality of Pienza is concentrated in this square dominated by the Cathedral of St. M Assunta. The town hall or Palazzo Pubblico with its arches on the ground floor, and the clock tower and the magnificent Palazzo Piccolomini with its well and the armory, complete this square, one of the most beautiful in Tuscany.

Cathédrale, palais sans oublier le très beau chemin de ronde qui fait le tour du centre et permet d'admirer la très belle campagne environnante!
