Chianciano Terme

Description

Chianciano Terme rises in the hilly area comprised between the fine cities of Montepulciano and Chiusi; it is a famous hydrothermal resort, fame that continued without interruption for more than 2000 years.
This is borne out by the many Etruscan and Roman archaeological finds that are continually being discovered throughout the territory and are collected in the recently opened Civic Archaeological Museum. The tourist can also visit the historic centre. In its evocative alleys which open into picturesque piazzas there are authentic art treasures such as the Church of San Giovanni, with the Museo della Collegiata and the Church of the Company (1517); just outside the Porta al sole, the small but precious Chiesa della Madonna della Rosa (1585) was built to Baldassarre Lanci design.
