Pitigliano,
the City of Tuff
Pitigliano is among the most beautiful villages in Italy, if not the most beautiful in the entire Maremma. Perched on a tuffaceous rock overhanging the valley, it is the ideal destination for those seeking a holiday among nature, history and good food.
Of very ancient origin, it was with the Etruscans that Pitigliano began its long history that would see it at the centre of many events in the centuries to come.
Always a land of borders and integration, Pitigliano is also known worldwide as The Little Jerusalem for the presence of a historic Jewish community; evidence of it can still be found in the ancient Jewish Quarter.
