WHERE HISTORY AND LANDSCAPE UNITE

The Ancient Certosa di Pontignano (Pontignano Charterhouse), a timeless location a few kilometres from Siena, is set on a hill looking over the city. The Certosa di Pontignano, the official congress centre for the University of Siena and the ideal location for stays in Tuscany, dates back to 1343 and presents the traditional appearance of Carthusian monasteries. In 1703, the Chapel of Saint Agnes, recognised the world over as a miniature Sistine chapel in the Siena area, was built inside the Certosa. The ancient residence has three different cloisters: the Main Cloister, the Lay Brothers Cloister and the Great Cloister, all interconnected.
