San Gimignano 1300 is not just a museum it is an EXPERIENCE! Storyboards, multi-media exhibits, street scenes, and a ceramic recreation of the city as it existed in 1300, are just a few of the exhibits that make this a "must see" family event. Together with state of the art lighting and sound, the museum brings to life what hasn't existed for over 700 years! The Museum is the culmination of the vision of two Master Artists, Michelangelo and Raffaello Rubino who, together with a team of artisans and historians, have faithfully recreated San Gimignano as it once existed. At San Gimignano 1300 you will learn, among other things, why most of the 72 towers collapsed and discover why the Via Francigena was so important to the city's growth. Come and visit our historic facility and be amazed by what was recently described as a "masterpiece of human achievement".
