San Gimignano is a town in the province of Siena, located on top of a hill 334 m high, was founded as a small village in the 3rd century BC by the Etruscans. The village turned into a city in the 10th century AD and received the name San Gimignano in honor of the Modena bishop Geminian (320-397), who, according to legend, stopped the hordes of Huns led by Attila at the city walls. The main feature of San Gimignano are fourteen medieval towers, built by the most noble families in the 11th-13th centuries. According to various sources, from 70 to 76 towers were built in total, but not all have survived to this day. Some "skyscrapers" reach a height of 50 meters.
