5Pitigliano – Tuscany

Carved into the tufa cliffs of southern Tuscany, Pitigliano is often referred to as the “Little Jerusalem” due to its historical Jewish community.

This medieval town is a labyrinth of narrow streets, ancient caves, and historic buildings that seem to emerge from the rock itself. The Orsini Fortress and the Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul are among the town’s notable landmarks, showcasing the rich history and unique architecture of Pitigliano.
