About Lucignano
Lucignano is a small walled town of about 3,500 people at around 400 m, 25 km south-west of Arezzo. Its streets form an ellipse of concentric rings, an example of medieval town planning, inside walls the Sienese built in 1371. Inside are the Collegiata di San Michele Arcangelo, the church of San Francesco with its Triumph of Death fresco, and the town museum holding the Tree of Gold, a gilded reliquary about 2.6 m tall. Just outside stand the ruins of a Medici castle and the sanctuary of the Madonna della Querce, attributed to Vasari. The homes sit in the countryside around the town, nearly all large, with a pool and a garden.
