Medicina

Welcome to Medicina, the pearl of the Svizzera Pesciatina!

Hello everyone! Today I will talk about a location in Tuscany that will surely amaze you: Medicina, a small village in the municipality of Pescia, in the province of Pistoia. This little gem is located in the Valleriana, also known as the Svizzera Pesciatina. I want to share with you the monuments and points of interest of this area and give you some tips to enjoy this experience to the fullest.

Monuments and points of interest

Let's start with the most important monument in Medicina: the Church of Saints Martino and Sisto. This church is located in the center of the village and is very ancient, dating back to the 12th century. Inside you can admire numerous frescoes, including those attributed to the "Maestro di Medicina" representing scenes from the life of Christ.

But it doesn't end here! The Svizzera Pesciatina is rich in breathtaking landscapes and walking paths to discover. I recommend taking a walk on the walls of Medicina, from which you can enjoy an unparalleled view of the valley. Moreover, for nature and adventure lovers, there are numerous excursions to be made, such as the one leading to the Maona cave. This cave is a natural wonder and is located a few kilometers from Medicina.
