Here the stone steps of houses and timber doors are hidden behind climbing ivy and robust vines. Colourful flowers bloom out of old wine barrels. The homes possess a tranquility and character that only comes with age. I have never seen anything more evocative or picturesque.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the locals can\u2019t really see the fuss everyone makes over their town.

During the first half of the fifteenth century the Church of San Giorgio was enlarged and restored, with the addition of the apse and transept. The frescoes date back to the second half of the 1400s. During the 18th century further modifications were made, adding elements of late Baroque art, stucco and plaster altars and a large arch. The church still houses some precious frescoes depicting the stories of St. George and the Dragon, dating back to 1491, the Martyrdom of St. Ursula and the Companions, some paintings depicting the Mystical Marriage of St. Catherine of Alexandria with St. Sigismund, the Christ in Piet\u00e0, San Sigismondo, San Giovanni Battista and San Guglielmo, an altarpiece depicting the Madonna and Child in Glory between Saints Sebastian and Fabiano, dating back to 1620.<\/p>\n<p>Piazza del Castello: here stands the ancient castle of Montemerano, an &#8220;atypical&#8221; castle because it is not a single building but a set of buildings that surround the square, characteristic arches, flowery windows, roofs at different levels and stairs that create a truly unique play of lines and colors. Among the most important historic buildings in the square, certainly the one that belonged to the Aldobrandeschi and Baschi, seat of the Sienese vicars and public offices of the period of the Free Municipality, the Palazzo del Podest\u00e0 located above the Porta del Castello, the Piazzetta del Forno and the Casa Carli , from the eighteenth century.<\/p>\n<p>Walls: the walls embrace the whole ancient town, initially built between the 13th and 14th centuries, the walls were remodeled during the 1400s.

Seen from above, the walls, which have been modified and remodeled in various eras, take on the characteristic shape of a heart.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9f61ac4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9f61ac4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;_id&quot;:&quot;ace4407&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_tablet&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_mobile&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:50,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_type&quot;:&quot;scroll&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_fx_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_z_index&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_animation_prop&quot;:&quot;transform&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_on&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;]}]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-74c6e11\" data-id=\"74c6e11\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-365e85b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"365e85b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The events of Montemerano<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6027804 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6027804\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Feast of San Giorgio: is one of the main events in Montemerano, dedicated to the patron saint of the town and celebrated on April 22-25.

The development of a first residential nucleus, however, dates back to the Etruscan-Roman period. According to some recent studies, the name of Montemerano, formerly Mons Marianus, derives from that of the consul Mario who in this area, between 88 and 82 BC. he was defeated by Lucio Cornelio Silla, during the civil war.<\/p>\n<p>For many centuries there is no news of Montemerano, until 896 when the new emperor of Rome, Arnolfo, donated the Castle of Montemerano to the Amiata Abbey of San Salvatore. Montemerano remained under the control of the Monastery for over a century, until the year 1000, when the rise of the Aldobrandeschi family began, a noble family of Lucca origin, who immediately managed to conquer Montemerano. Starting from the end of the XII century, Montemerano is a flourishing village of great social and economic importance in the Maremma area, for the whole period of the Aldobrandesca domination, the castle of Montemerano suffered the continuous attempts of conquest by Orvieto and Siena.<\/p>\n<p>Starting from 1210-1220, following the marriage with one of the members of the Aldobrandeschi family, power over the town passed to the Baschi family, of Umbrian origin. Under the rule of the Baschi family, Montemerano experienced a period of great growth, in 1328 the Basques also obtained, by decision of the emperor, the castles of Saturnia, Montauto and Manciano.<\/p>\n<p>In the second half of the 14th century, the Basques countered the expansionist aims of the Orsini, former lords of the County of Sovana and allied themselves with the Sienese.<\/p>\n<p>In 1382 Ranieri, the last representative of the Baschi family, granted, with a deed of sale, the castle of Montemerano to the Republic of Siena. During the Sienese period, for about the whole of the 1400s, Montemerano drew profound benefit from the new government, with economic and urban growth and a better living conditions for its population. Starting from 1407 and up to 1431 the surrounding walls were fortified with the construction of a keep and six towers. In 1489 the Municipal Statute was promulgated &#8211; Montemerano was already a municipality since the early 1400s &#8211; containing the definition of the city government with a Vicar, three Priors, a Camarlengo and a Council.<\/p>\n<p>In the sixteenth century Montemerano became part of the expansionist aims of Florence, and in 1556 Cosimo I managed to obtain ownership of the town. The Florentine dominion lasted for about two centuries, Montemerano then became a property of the Lorraine, until the day of its annexation to the Kingdom of Italy, in 1860.<\/p>\n<p>Useful links :<\/p>\n<p>comune.manciano.gr.it<br \/>\nmancianopromo.com<br \/>\nit.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Montemerano<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Montemerano Don\u2019t let Montemerano\u2019s humble exterior fool you.
