Good for a short stop of a couple hours. Nice to see an old small walled village to compare to the larger towns. There is a small fee if you want to walk on the top of the wall. There was a restaurant and a few shops for and antiques and other items. More

If you are anywhere in Tuscany, a visit to Monteriggioni is a must.

We thought we would only go here passing by and spend an hour. Half a day later we left - glad we stopped for longer. We got the audio guide and walked the wall and went throught the city.

When you arrive from the motorway Firenze-Siena, you see the towers of the walled village, what a beautiful view!
