Historic  Towns  of  Tuscany

​By Dion Protani
Latest update: 30 January 2024
This list of historic towns of Tuscany showcases some of the most fascinating and evocative locations in the region. 

Heading the list is the town of Vinci: if it wasn't for its most famous son, the village would probably go largely unnoticed but when that son is a certain Leonardo, it's easy to understand how the sleepy village has grown in stature and firmly fixed on the tourist trail. 

​The remaining towns on this list aren't necessarily able to name an historic celebrity among their former residents but they are all overflowing with historic charm and fascinating architecture.
