The Table of Lucignano
Medieval Flavors — Lucignano & Monte San Savino begins in the historic center of Lucignano with lunch at a traditional restaurant. The menu showcases fresh homemade pasta and Tuscan specialties, such as pici with wild boar ragù, ricotta and spinach tortelli, truffle gnocchi, and seasonal meat main courses. Dining within a village with a medieval, ring-shaped layout makes the meal an integral part of the visit. The stone streets, intimate squares, and concentric layout of the town create a setting in which the cuisine feels even more connected to the place. Taste becomes the first way into history.
The Civic Tower of Monte San Savino
In the afternoon, the itinerary continues in Monte San Savino with a guided visit to the Palazzo Pretorio and the Civic Tower. The tower, built in 1339 during Perugian rule, rises about thirty meters and offers a wide view of the historic center and the Valdichiana. The visit allows you to explore the village's medieval and Renaissance history and to see the Hall of Audiences, where the Pietà fresco by Stefano Veltroni from 1538 is located. Climbing the tower means reading the territory from above, connecting the country's architecture to the roads, hills and fields that surround it.
A day among flavors and perspectives
The Experience is designed for those who wish to combine food and culture in a compact yet rich program. The lunch creates a first connection with local tradition; the guided tour adds historical context and opens a panoramic view over the entire valley. The journey between Lucignano and Monte San Savino showcases two nearby but distinct villages, each with its own character. The offer is suitable for couples, families and small groups, with particular attention to those who love fresh pasta, historic architecture and scenic viewpoints. At the end of the day, two complementary images remain: Tuscany as seen from the table and as seen from the top of a tower.
