 This village is perched on top of a hill in the midst of greenery near Sarteano. Since its initial founding in 1100 A.D., the town has been held by Siena, Orvieto and Perugia. Small dirt roads branch off the main road and spread out in different directions down to the Val d'Orcia below. The top of the hill exhibits traces of the larger town that
 once thrived there during the Middle Ages. The only surviving church from that period, built in the Romanesque style and flanked by a bell tower, is dedicated to Sant'Andrea. The single nave contains the chapel that was consecrated in the name of St. Bonaventura.
