Penthouse via Sant'Anna, Centro, Pitigliano

Pitigliano presents itself to the visitor who arrives from the coast, on a tuff mass, almost suspended in the void, around green valleys: it is one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, located in the middle of that part of Maremma that goes from the coast of Argentario with Porto Ercole, Porto Santo Stefano, Talamone, Capalbio, Parco dell'Uccellina, (less than an hour), Monte Amiata, (less than an hour), Lake Bolsena, (about 15 minutes) and famous thermal baths of Saturnia. (About 15 minutes).
The characteristic historical center is known as the little Jerusalem, due to the historical presence of a Jewish community, which has always been well integrated into the social context that has its own synagogue here. The municipal territory of Pitigliano extends in the western part of the Tufo area. It borders to the north with the municipality of Sorano, to the south-east with the Lazio municipalities of Farnese, Ischia di Castro, Latera and Valentano from which it is bordered by the northern end of the Selva del Lamone, to the west with the municipality of Manciano. Arriving in Pitigliano from the sea, going up the regional road 74 Maremmana, you can see the characteristic houses that protrude from a large tuff spur, absolutely overhanging. The cliff of Pitigliano is surrounded on three sides by as many ravines, full of caves dug into the tuff; the Lente, Meleta and Prochio rivers flow into the valley. The municipal area rises to hilly altitudes ranging between 300 and 663 meters above sea level of Poggio Evangelista, which marks the border with Lazio at the eastern end; the area of the paduletto di Pantanello was subjected to reclamation in the Lorraine period, In the place where the town stands today there was an Etruscan center, testified by the remains of the walls found in the Capisotto district and then disappeared between the end of the sixth and the beginnings of the fifth century BC. The first news of Pitigliano appears in a bull sent by Pope Nicholas II to the provost of the cathedral of Sovana in 1061, where it is already indicated as the place of competence of the family of the Aldobrandeschi counts. In 1293 Anastasia, daughter of Countess Margherita Aldobrandeschi, married Romano Orsini bringing the county of Sovana as a dowry and the county seat was transferred to Pitigliano. The Orsini ruled the County of Pitigliano for centuries, defending them from the continuous attempts of submission by Siena and Orvieto first, and then by Medici Florence. It was only in 1574 that Niccolò IV Orsini ceded the fortress to the Medici and in 1604 Pitigliano was annexed to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, sold by Count Gian Antonio Orsini to pay off his debts. The Medici, however, were not interested in the fate of the city, which soon fell into decline, and only in 1737, the year in which the grand duchy passed to the Lorraine, did Pitigliano experience a slow economic and cultural recovery. Today it is a well-known tourist destination thanks to the peculiarity of its historic center, which has allowed its inclusion in the ANCI list of the most beautiful villages in Italy.
