Torrita di Siena has taken advantage of its position in the heart of the Valdichiana. In order to transform its economy the area has passed from agriculture, an activity of the main population, to the industry of handicraft. Many small companies of averages dimensions are found in Torrita, the majority of which are dedicated to the working of wood, clothing and building materials, increasing the potentiality of this small but prosperous village.
The first history with regards to Torrita di Siena goes back to the XI century, in fact the name first appears in the amiatino code of 1037. In the beginning of 1200 the Castle was ruled by the Senese Republic, who continued its reign for the successive centuries, despite the attempts by Montepulciano to gain power. The Siena defence due to its strategic position endured numerous attempts before becoming a part of Granducato of Tuscany. In 1554 it formally became part of the imperial armies and its coat of arms (the rampant lion with three ears) was replaced, on the Tower of the Communal building, with that of the Doctors.
A lot has been written about Ghino di Tacco (of the Monaceschi Pecorari family – ‘Signori della Fratta’), apparent figure of a ‘gentleman’ which to this day gives various interpretations and contrasting judgments. Torrita of Siena is the birthplace of Fra' Iacopo from Torrita (Brother Jacob), Francescano, renowned restorer of the art of the mosaic, of the XIII the century.
Torrita di Siena (325m above sea level.) has a territory of 58kmq and a population of approximately 7.000 inhabitants. Apart from the principal town that is articulated in an ancient historical nucleus and extends into the modern part, it is to be noticed the fraction of Montefollonico, an ancient medieval castle, that preserves interesting traces of its past and truly evocative landscaped aspects.
ART
The original nucleus is enclosed within the remains of ancient walls which date back to the beginning of the XIII century, and has been restored many time following destructions which have been endured. The fortification was crowned by nine square towers which in 1528 due to an idea of Baldassarre Peruzzi; bastions were inserted in the towers. The Public square, with its central position reassumed its buildings the three powers: the soldiers (the Tower), the civilians (Communal Building) and religious (Church of SS.Flora and Lucilla).
Famous civil and religious buildings:
Chiesa della Madonna dell’Olivo (Church of the Madonna of the Olive tree): situated on the top of a hill opposite the Porta a Pago and anciently called Pieve di S.Costanzo, it is the oldest church in Torrita. Circa 1000 years ago, some historians believe that the church was built on the ruins of a temple dedicated to the Goddess Cerere (Dea Cerere). During the centuries the church has endured numerous restorations and modifications.
Chiesa della Madonna delle Fonti a Giano (Church of the Madonna of the Sources to Giano): located along the road which connects Torrita of Siena to Sinalunga, this church was constructed in 1665. The Latin scripture found on the remains of the perennial font is a reminder of the miracles which happened around the image of the Madonna of the Font.
