This collection of religious sites of Tuscany stands separate to the many cathedrals, basilicas and baptisteries that can be found in the region's major cities such as Florence, Siena and Pisa.
The vast countryside of Tuscany is sprinkled with a number of abbeys, monasteries and religious sanctuaries that have provided both refuge and places of worship for pilgrims over the years. Among the most famous of this type are the historic Abbey of Sant'Antimo close to the town of Montalcino, and the exceptional site of La Verna which retraces the steps of Saint Francis of Assisi. |
