Asciano

Asciano, a jewel in the heart of the Crete Senesi

Nestled in the extraordinary landscape of the Crete Senesi, Asciano is a place rich in history, art and tradition. Its Etruscan and Roman origins blend with a well-preserved medieval heritage, among charming alleys, thousand-year-old churches and two museums of excellence. The historic Via Lauretana runs through it, intertwining with the iconic white roads that embrace the entire territory. The Abbey of Monte Oliveto Maggiore, a pearl immersed in nature, makes Asciano not only a destination of great charm, but also a crossroads of culture and spirituality. The breathtaking landscape, between gullies and “biancane”, and the rolling hills that change colour with the passing of the seasons, make Asciano an unforgettable stop in the heart of Tuscany.
