Pitigliano
-
Etruscan Pitigliano seems to grow right out of its rocky terrain. This hill town’s greatest sight is its medieval self, though the Palazzo Orsini castle (a 13th-century structure, enlarged by Giuliano da Sangallo) houses a few modest museums of local Etruscan finds (“Museo Civico Archeologico”) and its own rooms (“Palazzo Orsini”). The synagogue offers tours (Wednesday, Friday and Sunday) of Pitigliano’s significant Jewish heritage, which all but vanished with Nazi deportations.
