Piccolomini Library
Initially, this place was destined to house a collection of books by Enea Silvio Piccolomini, Pope Pius II of the Catholic Church from 1458 to 1464. Let yourself be captivated by its Renaissance frescoes painted by Pinturicchio, inspired, according to legend, by drawings from a young Raphael.
Crypt
This underground area, hidden for centuries, still preserves frescoes with intense colors and emotional biblical scenes. Did you know its frescoes date back to the 13th century and its paintings depict scenes of the Old and New Testament? Discover all its details!
Museo dell'Opera
This space was created to preserve and display artworks from the Siena Cathedral that were taken down from their original site due to various reasons. Here, you can explore its rooms filled with religious sculptures and art, such as the famous original rose window in the cathedral.

Located on the square with the same name, it was built between the years 1316 and 1325. This ticket will give you access to stroll under its decorated vaults and admire its baptismal font, a piece of art by Donatello, and other important Renaissance artists.
