Monteriggioni, Italy 🇮🇹 Thank you Italy for supporting Ukraine 🇺🇦 . . Monteriggioni is a medieval walled town, perched on a natural hill, built by the Sienese in 1214-1919 as a front line in their wars against Florence, taking command of the Via Cassia that passes through the Val d'Elsa and Val Staggia to the west. During the conflict between Siena and Florence in the Middle Ages, the city was strategically placed as a defense structure. It also withstood many attacks from both the Florentines and the troops of the Bishop of Volterra. . Photo by @maxlazzi #photography #noisecash #randomthoughts
