Historical notes about Montalcino
As many other medieval towns of Tuscany, during its history, Montalcino experienced periods of peace and prosperity. However, there was no lack of acts of violence, which have discontinued this atmosphere of serenity. Among the many episodes, important to remember are the struggles between Guelphs and Ghibellines, the former were Papacy’s supporters, while the Ghibellines were Empire’s supporters, who fought over the lead of the town.
What to see in Montalcino

The Duomo is one of the most important monuments of the town, which had been demolished in 1817 and totally rebuilt in Neoclassic style in 1834.
