Tuscany, Italy National heritage site The origins of San Miniato go back to Etruscans and Roman times as can be seen by the remains of those civilizations. Colonized by the Augustan legionaries San Miniato later was a military post with the name of “Quarto”, but only as a consequence of the Longobards’ invasion it became a village. In 783 the Longobards built a church here and consecrated it to the martyr Saint Miniato, whence the present name of the town. On his way home from Pisa, Saint Francis of Assisi travelled to the top of the San Miniato hill and founded the historic Convent on the year 1211.

The Basilica di San Miniato al Monte (Basilica of St Minias on the Mountain) stands atop one of the highest points in Florence, and has been described as the finest Romanesque structure in Tuscany and one of the most beautiful churches in Italy. / Construction of the present church was begun in 1013 by Bishop Alibrando and it was endowed by the Emperor Henry II. It began as a Benedictine monastery, then passed to the Cluniacs and then in 1373 to the Olivetans, who still run it. The monks make famous liquors, honey and tisanes, which they sell from a shop next to the church. The geometrically patterned marble façade was probably begun in about 1090, although the upper parts date from the 12th century or later, financed by the Florentine Arte di Calimala (cloth merchants’ guild), who were responsible for the church’s upkeep from 1288 (the eagle which crowns the façade was their symbol).
