San Quirico d’Orcia

Recenter Map To This Location

Leaving Pienza, take S146 west to San Quirico d’Orcia, a very attractive small medieval town with a lovely Romanesque church. If you stop to see the town, you must not miss its lovely garden, called Horti Leonini. An entrance about a block from the main square leads into a tranquil Renaissance garden, originally designed as a beautiful resting place for the pilgrims who stopped here on the road to Rome. This cool oasis with clipped box hedges and shade trees makes an interesting stop. If you are hungry, the Osteria del Leone makes a good choice for lunch.
