It’s autumn, the days grow shorter but it is a good time to plan trips and explore destinations you already visited to discover lesser-known spots.
For example Siena, where in November you can follow exclusive events dedicated to a curious and demanding public.
We have already suggested what to do in the evening in Siena and we want to update you with the next unmissable events in the next weeks.
If you like musical performances, art and wine tasting, you shouldn’t miss “Seven Notes in Seven Nights”, scheduled every Thursday from 9:00 pm at Palazzo Pubblico.

The Civic Museum, located inside Palazzo Pubblico in Piazza del Campo, is one of the most appealing attractions in Siena, due to works of art like: The Majesty (1315) and the Guidoriccio da Fogliano (1328) by Simone Martini, The effects of Good government in the city and in the countryside and the Allegory and the effects of bad government (1339-39) by Ambrogio Lorenzetti, the cycle Virtù Dei e Uomini Illustri (Virtues, Gods and Illustrious Men) by Taddeo di Bartolo in the Antechapel.
These masterpieces will be explained, together with other works, by expert guides able to engage visitors revealing stories, anecdotes and curiosities about Siena.
