What are the best things to see in Magliano in Toscana?

À Magliano in Toscana, start by wandering through the medieval center and its ramparts, then head to the ruins of San Bruzio, about 2 km of the village. In the town, follow the narrow streets between the Porta San Giovanni and the Porta San Martino : the latter opens onto the countryside. The walkway also allows you to observe the fortifications up close, but don't expect a long, developed promenade.

On the square, look at the facade of the Palazzo di Checco il Bello, then enter the pieve San Giovanni Battista if it is open: it notably houses frescoes and a baptistery dated 1439. At the exit of the village, theOlivo della Strega, a monumental olive tree, is worth a brief detour. For San Bruzio, there remain walls, an apse and arches, not an intact building; the site is visited mainly for its ruins and the rural setting. Allow about 1 to 2 hours for the village, more if you go to the ruins on foot. The churches' opening hours may vary, so check on site before counting on an interior visit.
