2 Art and culture
The universal symbol of the city is Piazza del Campo is just one of the reasons why UNESCO identifies Siena the perfect and ideal example of a medieval city.
The main square, or better by everyone called "Il Campo", was built on the intersection of the three main roads leading to Siena.
The homogenous architectural form of the square and the buildings that face it is not, of course, accidental: the municipality created special guidelines in 1297, even before all the buildings of the square were erected, including the civic ones.
If some structure had not been well conformed to the guidelines, it was demolished; this means that the harmonious coexistence between the buildings and the square is nothing more than the result of the will of the leaders who took over the command of the city.
According to medieval chronicles, La Torre del Mangia with its 102 meters high, towering and imposing on Piazza Del Campo, the elegant and slender civic tower of Palazzo Pubblico is the third highest in Italy.
Do not give up the landscape that offers the tower above the city of Siena
