My wife and I purchased 2 'all inclusive' tickets to all the cities museums, along with with city tower. We told the man who sold us the tickets our schedule, that we were only in San Miniato for 2 full days. Even with this information, he somehow failed to to tell us that only 2 of the 8 locations would be open during our stay, one of which was the museum that he was working at. Even worse, we explicitly told him we had the most interest in the tower. While they were seemingly helpful, we were disappointed by their inability to acknowledge the fact that almost all the locations would be closed during our stay. San Miniato was gorgeous and we loved it, but this was a severe disappointment.

This place is amazing, it oversees the whole plain around the hill. The tower itself was surely great, but unfortunately the German army destroyed it during World War II. In 1958, it was rebuilt like it was before.

The walk to the tower is not the easiest, but wow, that view is amazing

Beautiful view and made for some great photos, only 4 stars because the tower itself is nothing exciting to look at. If you like history this is a good place for you. They had some nice reading about the history of the San Miniato. Cute downtown with some nice bars and restaurants. Hot in July, the weather has been consistently 85-95 each day throughout Italy.

Great place to visit. It’s a nice climb from the car park and a beautiful view from the tower base. It’s also possible to climb the tower but we didn’t do that.

Tower is meh, but the views are stunning!!! A bit of a hike to get up but nothing too major! It took us about 10 minutes from the town center. You can see for miles and miles! What a great view! I was surprised to find hardly anyone up there. Tuscany is truly so beautiful, and this vantage point was one of the best views we witnessed!

When yourn the vicinity of San Minitat, make sure you climb the hill to the tower. For an extra couple of euros you get great views of the surrounding hills and villages. Tuscany on your hand.

The view on top of the tower is nice, but not sure it’s worth it. The village itself is much nicer and has several beautiful churches and plazzas.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience visiting the vineyard! The wine tasting was exceptional – each wine was delicious and beautifully presented. Lunch prepared by the chef of restaurant Olivum exceeded all expectations – every dish was full of flavor and perfectly paired with the wines. What made the visit even more special was the guided tour of the vineyard led by Nico. His stories, knowledge, and passion for winemaking brought the whole experience to life. A truly unforgettable day – highly recommended to anyone who appreciates great wine, food, and warm hospitality!

We booked a tour easily for our group of 13, our host was very knowledgeable about the vineyard and explained all the processes brilliantly and answered all our questions with ease. The wine tasting was exceptional with 5 wines and 1 olive oil to enjoy. Most of us bought wine to bring home. Overall a fabulous well run small family business. Value for money was excellent at €40 euros per head. Can definitely recommend.

Wonderful and relaxing afternoon learning about the different grapes, climates, and how wine is made at this boutique winery. We had a relaxed tour and then tasted some lovely wines with meat, cheese, and bread. We were able to meet the owner as there is only about 6 employees. The operation is small and relatively new located in the valley so if you are looking for the rustic, large winery on a hill this is not for you.

Fabio was fantastic. He gave an amazing tour of the vineyard and the wine making process. We tasted a number of wines from fizzy rose to rich reds. They also make oil which is delicious and we tasted it with wine cheese an fabulous meats. They made a vegetarian dish for my wife which she enjoyed and I appreciated. It’s a smaller vineyard that had only a few other guests making it a perfect place to enjoy the Tuscan wine and learn about the process on how it is made. The family is so nice and shipping wines to the US is available.

We had a great time at this active vineyard. We arrived after a tour had already begun, but the host (Fabio) was flexible and let us join in the existing group for tasting the wine and the gave us a private tour of the vineyard afterwards. Fabio spoke excellent English and was able to answer all of our questions clearly. The environment was just lovely and the facilities they have established were perfect for our visit. Clean and tidy and very modern. The wine itself was clearly of very good quality and something Fabio was justly proud of. He provided breads, cheeses and meats to nibble during the tasting and they were locally sourced and also lovely. For €25 per person, I thought this was a great value and would highly recommend a visit if in the area.

Fantastic tour and tasting in beautiful Tuscany! We had a great time at Agrisole. We were able to taste all of their wines as well as their olive oil paired with bread, salami and cheeses and even homemade jams and the most delicious ragu. The wines are all reasonably priced and we enjoyed the small winery experience. Highly recommend.

The best wine tasting experience we’ve had in Tuscany! It so nice to have a sneak pick to a small, very professional, family business - they even engraved their children’s initials on each wine bottle. Nicoletta was very professional and her enthusiasm was contagious. The wine was delicious and Mama prepared some vegetarian options specifically for us 🤩 In the end we had to buy 2 bottles!

Beautiful and interesting facade.

The old seminary of san miniato

(Translated by Google) The Episcopal Seminary of San Miniato is a building that began to be built in 1650 and which took 63 years to complete. In 1705-1708, Bishop Giovanni Francesco Maria Poggi commissioned the decoration of the facade to an artist named Francesco Chimenti. The eighteenth-century decoration makes the building a single large, perfectly united block and expands its surface area. The facade is decorated with 30 frescoes of allegorical figures of virtue, each accompanied by a biblical or Church Fathers quote explaining the meaning of the allegory. It is evident that there was a strong influence of the bishop in the creation of the iconographic program of the facade. Frescoes were important for conveying moral teachings and dogmas, as well as emotionally engaging the viewer. Furthermore, some of the phrases used accompanying the allegories come from a text written by Cesare Ripa, called Iconologia, which was used by many artists and which had a great influence on the figurative arts. (Original) Il Seminario Vescovile di San Miniato è un edificio che iniziò a costruirsi nel 1650 e che richiese 63 anni per essere ultimato. Nel 1705-1708, il vescovo Giovanni Francesco Maria Poggi commissionò la decorazione della facciata ad un artista di nome Francesco Chimenti. La decorazione settecentesca rende l'edificio un unico grande blocco perfettamente unito e amplia la sua superficie. La facciata è decorata con 30 affreschi di figure allegoriche di virtù, ciascuna accompagnata da una citazione biblica o dei Padri della Chiesa che spiega il significato dell'allegoria. È evidente che ci fu una forte influenza del vescovo nella creazione del programma iconografico della facciata. Gli affreschi erano importanti per trasmettere insegnamenti morali e dogmi, oltre a coinvolgere emotivamente lo spettatore. Inoltre, alcune delle frasi utilizzate accompagnando le allegorie provengono da un testo scritto da Cesare Ripa, chiamato Iconologia, che fu utilizzato da molti artisti e che ebbe una grande influenza sulle arti figurative.

(Translated by Google) The Palazzo del Seminario stands out for its curved facade decorated with frescoes and Latin inscriptions. Walking through Piazza della Repubblica and admiring this building transported me to another era. Many visitors appreciate the architectural originality and the beauty of the pictorial details. (Original) El Palazzo del Seminario destaca per la seva façana corba decorada amb frescos i inscripcions llatines.

(Translated by Google) The first phase of construction of the Episcopal Seminary of San Miniato began in 1650, but it took 63 years to complete its construction. Only from 1705-1708 did Monsignor Giovanni Francesco Maria Poggi commission the decoration of the façade to Francesco Chimenti da Fucecchio. Although years have passed for the construction of the building, the eighteenth-century decoration makes the Palace seem like a single large, perfectly united homogeneous block, as well as expanding its wall surface. The façade of the Seminary is decorated with 30 frescoes of allegorical figures of virtue, each connected with a biblical or Church Fathers sentence that explains the meaning of the corresponding allegory. It is obvious, therefore, that, for the purposes of interpreting allegories, the connection between the meaning of the Latin maxim and the allegory that accompanies it is very important. We can believe that there was a strong influence of Monsignor Giovanni Francesco Maria Poggi in the creation of the iconographic program of the facade. The logic that follows the decoration is visible, for example, already from the first allegories starting from the wing at right angles to the rest of the building: here is the representation of the three theological virtues, namely Faith, Hope and Charity . They prepare Christians to live in relationship with God because he is known through faith, hoped for and then loved. It must certainly have been clear in the mind of the bishop of San Miniato that the allegory frescoes, like all images of a religious nature, are fundamental for transmitting a set of moral teachings and dogmas to the public, as well as having the ability to emotionally involve the viewer. Moreover, we must remember that the frescoes decorate a building, the Seminary, whose purpose is the learning of ecclesiastical principles and study: there must undoubtedly be a connection between the purpose of the exterior and the interior. Furthermore, in the mottos that accompany two allegories on the facade there are words taken from a Latin quotation found in the pages of the Iconologia in which Cesare Ripa describes the allegory of Chastity and the Christian Religion. These two allegories can be represented on the facade of the Seminary because they are two religious virtues. Furthermore, the "strange" coincidence of finding the exact words reproduced suggests that Monsignor Poggi directly used, at least in part, Cesare Ripa's Iconology. This text, first published in 1593, had many subsequent publications, including one in 1625, before the decoration of the facade. Iconology is one of the texts from which many artists drew inspiration and which had a great influence on the figurative arts. It is for this reason that to interpret the allegories of the Palazzo del Seminario the main text source is Cesare Ripa's Iconology published in 1625. In addition to this, however, I also used another very important text: the Moral Hieroglyphics by Vincenzo Ricci , text published in 1626. As regards the Latin mottos, however, they often show the name of the author on the facade, but, sometimes, the name painted in the box and the real author of the sentence do not coincide; furthermore, in some cases, the name of an author is not shown in the box on the front. We can hypothesize that this is due to the deterioration that the façade underwent between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century: it may have caused the disappearance of some names and the damage of others which may have then been mistakenly modified during the restorations. of the twentieth century. (Original) La prima fase di costruzione del Seminario Vescovile di San Miniato inizia nel 1650, ma per ultimare la sua edificazione sono stati necessari 63 anni. Soltanto a partire dal 1705-1708 Monsignor Giovanni Francesco Maria Poggi commissiona la decorazione della facciata a Francesco Chimenti da Fucecchio. Nonostante siano trascorsi anni per la realizzazione dell’edificio, la decorazione settecentesca fa sembrare il Palazzo un unico grande blocco omogeneo perfettamente unito, oltre a dilatarne la superficie parietale. La facciata del Seminario è decorata con 30 affreschi di figure allegoriche di virtù, ciascuna collegata con una sentenza biblica o dei Padri della Chiesa che esplica il significato dell’allegoria corrispondente. È ovvio, quindi, che, ai fini dell’interpretazione delle allegorie, sia molto importante  il collegamento tra il significato della massima latina e l’allegoria che l’accompagna. Possiamo credere che ci sia stata una forte influenza di Monsignor Giovanni Francesco Maria Poggi nella realizzazione del programma iconografico della facciata. La logica che segue la decorazione è visibile, ad esempio, già dalle prime allegorie  a partire dall’ala ad angolo retto rispetto al resto dell’ edificio: qui si trova la rappresentazione delle tre virtù teologali, cioè la Fede, la Speranza e la Carità. Esse dispongono i cristiani a vivere in relazione con Dio perché egli è conosciuto mediante la fede, sperato e poi amato. Nella mente del vescovo di San Miniato doveva sicuramente essere chiaro che gli affreschi delle allegorie, come tutte le immagini di ambito religioso, sono fondamentali per tramandare al pubblico un insieme di insegnamenti morali e dogmi, oltre ad avere la facoltà di coinvolgere emotivamente lo spettatore. Del resto, dobbiamo ricordarci che gli affreschi decorano un edificio, il Seminario, il cui scopo è l’apprendimento dei principi ecclesiastici e lo studio: deve esserci senza dubbio un collegamento tra la finalità dell’esterno e dell’interno. Inoltre, nei motti che accompagnano due allegorie della facciata sono presenti delle parole riprese da una citazione latina che si ritrova nelle pagine dell’Iconologia in cui Cesare Ripa descrive l’allegoria della Castità e della Religione Cristiana. Queste due allegorie possono essere rappresentate sulla facciata del Seminario perché si tratta di due virtù religiose. Inoltre, la “strana” coincidenza di ritrovare riprese le esatte parole, fa pensare che Monsignor Poggi abbia direttamente utilizzato, almeno in parte, l’Iconologia di Cesare Ripa. Questo testo, pubblicato  per la prima volta nel 1593, ha avuto molte pubblicazioni successive, tra cui una nel 1625, anteriore alla decorazione della facciata. L’Iconologia è uno dei testi da cui trassero ispirazione molti artisti e che ebbe una grande influenza sulle arti figurative. È per questo motivo che per interpretare le allegorie del Palazzo del Seminario la fonte testo principale è proprio l’Iconologia di Cesare Ripa pubblicata nel 1625. Oltre a questa, tuttavia, ho utilizzato anche un altro testo molto importante: i Geroglifici Morali di Vincenzo Ricci, testo pubblicato nel 1626. Per quello che riguarda i  motti latini, invece, essi spesso riportano sulla facciata il nome dell’autore, ma, talvolta, il nome dipinto nel riquadro ed il vero autore della sentenza non coincidono; inoltre, in qualche caso, non è riportato nel riquadro sulla facciata il nome di un autore. Possiamo ipotizzare che ciò sia dovuto al deterioramento che ha subìto la facciata tra la fine dell’Ottocento e l’inizio del Novecento: esso potrebbe aver provocato la scomparsa di alcuni nomi ed il danneggiamento di altri che possono essere stati poi erroneamente modificati durante i restauri del Novecento.

(Translated by Google) I only had the opportunity to see and admire this seminar from the outside, and I found it truly beautiful and evocative. The location where it is located within San Miniato Alto is beautiful and the square that hosts it is also very beautiful. I was there during the Christmas period and the whole town was lovely! (Original) Questo seminario ho avuto modo di vederlo ed ammirarlo solo dall'esterno, e lo ho trovato veramente bellissimo e suggestivo. Bella la posizione dove si trova all'interno di San Miniato Alto e molto bella anche la piazza che lo ospita. Ci sono stata nel periodo natalizio e tutto il paese era incantevole!

(Translated by Google) The spectacular and scenic Palazzo del Seminario embraces an entire side of the long Piazza della Republica. Officially inaugurated in 1713, it was built during the previous century, incorporating the buildings that rested on the ancient city walls of S. Miniato; the front was decorated and frescoed in the early 1700s by F. Chimenti with images of the virtues and thirty biblical and patristic mottos. In the refectory an interesting "Last Supper" by D. Lotti. (Original) Lo spettacolare e scenografico palazzo del Seminario abbraccia un intero lato della lunga piazza della Republica. Inaugurato ufficialmente nel 1713, fu edificato, nel corso del secolo precedente, inglobando i fabbricati che poggiavano sull'antica cinta muraria di S. Miniato; il fronte fu decorato e affrescato, nei primi anni del 1700, da F. Chimenti con immagini delle virtù e trenta motti biblici e patristici. Nel refettorio una interessante "Ultima Cena" di D. Lotti.

Amazing vegetarian restaurant. We loved every course. The only thing is that in the tasting menu there are a 3 smoked dishes that is not my favorite taste (my suggestion is to have only one especially in a tasting many). despite that overall amazing experience and food level. 👏🏼 PS. Shout out to the super kind Amanda

We were completely blown away by every aspect of our meal at Maggese. Service was outstanding the staff were friendly and after consulting the menu we asked our waiter to surprise us and feed us their best and favourite food. We had five courses which wasn't overwhelming, each course was perfectly proportioned and some courses included some surprise embellishments that were fun. We loved each course and the presentation was outstanding. Although the meal was distinctly Italian there were also Japanese influences in several courses which we really appreciated. Highly recommended.

Really nice restaurant if you're looking for a place that's a bit more upscale. For us it was also a great happy surprise that the menu is fully vegetarian! It can be so hard to find in Italy. The food was absolutely stunning, maybe one of the best meals of my life. I will have to come back at some point! Oh and the waiters and chef were all really friendly and very welcoming. And they managed to give us a table even without a reservation!

Absolutely spectacular. The service, food, and overall experience at Ristorante Maggese are on another level. At one point they even played a 1950’s Mexican bolero for me—and it fit right into the atmosphere as if it were made for the place. Every dish was creative, balanced, and bursting with flavor, clearly crafted with passion and precision. The staff went above and beyond, making the evening feel personal and unforgettable. This is not just dinner, it’s an experience. Truly Michelin Guide level—this place deserves stars. ✨

Wow! What an experience! It is the best vegetarian restaurant I have been to in my life. It is not just about the food, surprising in all its forms and nuances, the environment is relaxing, friendly and professional at the same time. The staff are nice and really supportive and they explain all the dishes to you. Sometimes you may need to be very focused to follow all the details. Menu is absolutely great, well thought and balanced. There must be a lot of work and research behind it. Finally, a special mention for his majesty, the white truffle of San Miniato. The chef proposed to us a version of the classic truffle egg that made me touch heaven. He played with Parmigiano, french butter and goat cheese. Some black truffle was also there. I was amazed and I felt I wanted to eat more :)

Outstanding vegetarian restaurant in San Miniato. Do the tasting. It's amazing. The flavors and care put into the food are delicate and thoughtful. We would go again and again. We also had the special white truffle menu, which was fantastic. #ristorantemaggese #sanminiato #sagradeltartufobianco

Worth for 5 stars rating, the best vegetarian restaurant that I have been. The chef is very creative with the food, all the sauces match well with variet of vegetable and fruits, the presentation of the food just like an art , beautiful . Very good and friendly stuffs. Once you taste the 1st dish , you definitely forgot that this is a vegetarian restaurant, because it's not important anymore when you are in front of those delicious foods.

One of our best meals in Italy. Traditional Italian dishes with a twist. We got the truffle pasta, rigatoni, and the pork. All was soo good. Would love to come back one day. The patio is also a great atmosphere

Wonderful Italian food with influence from other cuisine. For example, I had ceviche and my husband had grilled octopus with fennel mousse. We went there for a friend’s birthday and we were 30 minutes late. They did not show any frustration and accepted us with 3 children. Children ate pasta bolognese and pasta with butter as they requested and those tequests were kindly accepted. The last pasta picture is pasta with squid and ink and bottarga, but it didn’t taste much.

This is our second visit to Papaveri e Papere after a memorable dinner in July 2022. They did not disappoint! Amazing food and service.

What a great dinner! The tasting earth menu it’s a perfect mix of local dishes but made in a modern way. Very good wine selection alongside a very good mâitre which suggested a us a wonderful atypical Pinot noir (Ventisei of Rio). Very suggested !

Buonissimo! Excellent. We have been twice, and the food and service was superb on both occasions. Full even on a Monday, you should make a reservation. My choices last night, Rotolo di coniglio for antipasto, cotteletto di agnello for secondi potato, melt in the mouth delicious. 3 courses and a bottle of wine for 2 was under 100eu, and for what we got, is very good value. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.

Super culinary experience in the heart of Tuscany. Let the sommelier guide you for great wine pairing!

We had the most amazing time here, try the tagliolini all tartufo . Also the tuna fish was excellent, chocolate fondant with custard is a must very happy with our choices

We really enjoyed our meal here! Great menu choices, friendly service and delicious food. Highly recommended and very reasonably priced.

Fantastic dinner! We arrived without a reservation and a very kind (and beautiful) waitress brought us to our table. We tried the white truffle pasta & the black truffle pasta, it was fantastic! The service was great, food was great, and the ambiance was great. Of course I finished the meal with amaro and a cafe. I definitely recommend this restaurant!

Lovely pizza and pasta, quick and friendly service and very reasonable prices! The waitress even booked a taxi for us. Must visit if you're in San Miniato.

Nice restaurant with good food. Waitresses were very nice and the price was also very acceptable. If you are in San Miniato, I'd recommend this place 😁

Super Cute place, service was great, the food was awesome! And the prices are just right..

The staff were very friendly and did their best to accommodate us on a very busy night. Our pizza arrived quickly, but it was disappointing. The mozzarella that they use (or rather, the approximation thereof) is barely edible. Good selection of beers though. With a little more effort with ingredients this place could be great.

Good food and staff was helpful and friendly. Lots of locals eating.

Absolutely amazing food. We had one of their set tasting menus with meat instead of the fish option, and it was fantastic. I really have nothing negative to point out, except for the ravioli dish where the white sauce needed quite a bit of salt. Besides that the wine was great, the service was great and the view was equally good. Really nice experience. This is one of those places i will return to.

I’ve rarely eaten in a restaurant with this special a view, combined with the highest standards of modern cooking. A very special evening, thank you so much for everything

We were surprised to find such an elegant modern restaurant in the small city of San Miniato, dressed for truffle hunt we were no expecting to have lunch in a classy restorant, never the less we were welcome and I'm happy to say we had a very good time, the food was excellent and the waitress was very pleasant, we were not feeling out of place I had the risotto carbonara which was divine, the kids had spaghetti pomodoro and were very pleased with it It is not your regular Hosteria / trattoria of the neighborhood but, it was good Recommended 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

Amazing food from amazing people. And what you in a few hours transformed The Virgin - our fish from Norway to ... was out of this world!!!

It was the best meal of our time spent in San Miniato. We tried a few times to make a reservation (small restaurant). It was worth the wait. A great place to visit for a special occasion. We both enjoyed three courses. I ordered all items from the vegetarian list while my companion selected a mix from fish (pesce) and meat (carne). The flavours and pairings with wine were superb. The amuse bouche from the chef was delightful—and the breads were artistic and delicious (also provided gluten free bread). It was a good thing we had a short walk back to the car. We were pleasantly full. We will return!!

More than one local recommended we try Pepenero (already a good sign) and what a great recommendation! Food is excellent! Call in advance so you get them balcony seats. :)

Really good restaurant with super service and quality of food. Nice location at the top of the town with a modern dining room. Service was attentive, wine suggestions good. Overall would recommend as a strong option.

Short menu with some vegan options but once informed they can arrange extra dishes. The chickpea frittata is very good! The restaurant is small, cozy and has a nice mix and match between rustic and modern design. Staff are young and welcoming.

Absolutely delicious food! So flavourful and the local wines as well. Pleasant and attentive staff. We sat at the tables set outside of the restaurant next to the courtyard.

The bruscheta salmon was amazing. The service was very good and reasonable prices

Very tasty and really nice staff

Great food and a really chilled out atmosphere.would highly recommend.

(Translated by Google) This restaurant/wine bar is located in the center of San Miniato Alto, right across from the porticoes (you can also dine there in the summer) and is easily accessible on foot. There are also a couple of bars nearby where you can enjoy an excellent aperitivo, so given the restaurant's excellent value, we opted to stop at the nearby bar before dinner. We found a typical Tuscan menu, simple yet carefully crafted dishes. They don't venture into overly elaborate dishes; they just "do what they know how," which I'd say is definitely a plus. The wine selection is excellent, and the staff is knowledgeable. I'd call the value very good. Perhaps, just perhaps, we spent a few euros more than we expected, but given the location, the convenience, and the quality of the food, drinks, and service, I'd say it's more than justified. (Original) Ristorante/enoteca in centro a San Miniato alto, proprio di fronte ai portici (in estate è possibile anche mangiarci) nella zona più comoda da raggiungere a piedi. Nelle vicinanze ci sono anche un paio di bar dove poter gustare un ottimo aperitivo quindi visto l'ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo del ristorante abbiamo optato di soffermarci nel bar vicinissimo prima della cena. Troviamo un tipico menù toscano, piatti semplici ma ben curati. Non si avventurano in piatti troppo ricercati, "fanno quello che sanno fare" e questo direi che è sicuramente un plus. Ottima la scelta dei vini e personale competente. Rapporto qualità prezzo che definirei molto buono, forse e dico forse, abbiamo speso qualche euro in più di quello che mi aspettavo, ma vista la location, la comodità e la qualità di cibo, bevande e servizio direi che è più che giustificato.
