CASOLE DELSA Casole d’Elsa,a medieval village of Etruscan origin, is located at a few hundred metres, at walking distance from Hotel Gemini.Casole is part of the Orange Flag Association of the Italian Touring Club, for its high eco-environment commitment. The second Sunday in July the PALIO OF CASOLE is run in honour of Sant’Isidoro. The village has maintained its antique appearance and its medieval urban plan of a main road for pedestrians, and two lateral streets for animal transit, with alleyways linking them. Casole d’Elsa has also maintained its medieval walls with two towers designed by Francesco di Giorgio and two main gates, called Porta ai Frati and Porta al Rivellino. At this last is the Sienese Rocca dating from 1352, now housing the council offices. On the main road is the Palazzo Pretorio, with the local coats of arms. Worth visiting is the church of Santa Maria, consecrated in 1161, with two funeral statues by Gano da Siena and Marco Romano and a Nativity scene by Giovanni della Robbia. Next to the church is the museum, which displays a impressive collection of local Etruscan artefacts and a section exhibiting paintings, furniture, jewellery and sacred ornaments. In the vicinity, the romantic church of San Niccolò and in the village of Mensano, the parish church dating from the 12th century. |
