Holiday apartment in Signa: Discover culture, nature and history

Signa between culture, nature and vibrant tradition

A holiday apartment in Signa is the perfect starting point for anyone who does not want to limit their stay to a single theme. In Signa, evidence of a long history meets places where the landscape and outdoor activities can be experienced. In addition, there is the Festa della Beata Giovanna, which takes place in Signa every year on Easter Monday. This allows you to plan your trip entirely according to your interests: with cultural discoveries, time in nature or a stay consciously connected to a local festival tradition.

Straw processing and historic churches

The Museo Civico della Paglia houses objects and works related to straw processing. It therefore offers a tangible introduction to a material whose processing represents a distinct cultural focus in Signa. For travellers who enjoy exploring regional themes and craft-oriented objects, a visit to this museum is an insightful complement to the town's historic buildings.

The Chiesa di San Mauro a Signa has been documented since the 13th century. The same church houses a ciborium dating from around 1500, from the workshop of Benedetto Buglioni.

The Pieve di San Giovanni Battista a Signa also dates back a long way: it is already mentioned in a document from the year 964.
