Via Italia and the alleys – MONTEMERANO

MONTEMERANO PRENOTA ORA LA TUA VACANZA IN UNO DEI BORGHI PIU' BELLI D'ITALIA

Going beyond Porta del Ponte you arrive in Via Italia, a small road connecting the castle and the lower alleys.

Via Italia is the main street of Montemerano, it connects Porta del Ponte with Porta della Canonica, it is a paved road about 100 meters long, which houses shops and stores, and is a mandatory stop for all tourists.

The street also houses one of the most famous restaurants in Italy, the "Trattoria Caino".

Along the way you come across the doors of the underground cellars of Montemerano and the characteristic closed porticoes, once part of the Piazza del Mercato.

Numerous alleys branch off from Via Italia, some of them are blind and end up against the city walls, while others reach enchanting squares, such as the Piazzetta del'Antico Frantoio, where once there was one of the many mills in the village today remembered between three imposing millstones, the Piazzetta di San Martino, surrounded by characteristic houses with flowered balconies, and the Piazzetta del Ritiro, more intimate and secluded.

This part of Montemerano is certainly the most intimate and protected of the village, it contains small corners to be discovered, arches, ancient doors and windows, a centenary wisteria that grows right above an opening in the walls, used in the past for the passage of men and animals, up to the characteristic "Vicolo della Flanella", so nicknamed because once upon a time the young people of the town cultivated their sweet adolescent loves there.
