This is one of the most beautiful Romanesque churches in Italy. The setting in a classic Tuscan landscape is beautiful too.

Sant’Antimo - This is a fascinating hermitage, with a medieval cathedral where still today monks sing Gregorian chants (it is not uncommon to have the chance to hear them). About 80 km away: take the same road for Montalcino (above) and just prior to entering the city, turn off to the left and follow indications to Sant’Antimo.
