Bagno Vignoni

"Visit Bagno Vignoni, a cute little town (population: 30!), part of the municipality of San Quirico d'Orcia, in the province of Siena, in Tuscany. At the center of the village is the "square of the springs", a rectangular pool of sixteenth-century origin, which contains a source of hot and steaming thermal water that comes out of the underground layer of volcanic origins. Since the time of the Etruscans and then the Romans - as evidenced by the numerous archaeological finds - the baths of Bagno Vignoni used to be frequented by illustrious personalities, such as Pope Pius II, Catherine of Siena, Lorenzo de 'Medici. It is no longer possible to bathe in the pools. Take a stroll through town and explore some artisanal shops. "
