Tourist and Historical Information: Pienza is considered the pearl of the Renaissance and the "ideal city" envisioned by Pope Pius II (Enea Silvio Piccolomini), who starting in 1459 entrusted the architect Bernardo Rossellino with redesigning his native village of Corsignano according to the principles of Humanism. The historic center, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996, develops around the scenic Piazza Pio II, overlooked by the Cathedral of the Assunta, Palazzo Piccolomini with its wonderful hanging gardens overlooking the landscape, and Palazzo Borgia. The nearby hamlet of Monticchiello is a charming 14th-century fortified village perched on a hill, world-famous for the tradition of the Teatro Povero, a community outdoor theatrical performance written and acted by the locals since 1967. The Val d'Orcia region is a masterpiece of cultural landscape shaped by man and famous for iconic landmarks like the Vitaleta Chapel, the cypress trees of Terrapille, and winding hill roads. Local food and wine culture is celebrated by the renowned Pecorino di Pienza aged in walnut leaves or oak barrels, best enjoyed along the characteristic streets of the village paired with fine local DOCG wines.
