San Gimignano: Difference between revisions

San Gimignano is one of the many cities in Tuscany. It is characterized by tall towers that resemble skyscrapers which gave it the nickname of "Medieval Manhattan".

Landmarks

Due to its many towers, the city itself is a landmark. Several buildings in and around San Gimignano are particularly significant.

Torre Grossa

Main article: Torre Grossa

This tower next to Santa Maria Assunta is one of San Gimignano's largest, and with good reason: it contains an Assassin Tomb.

Antico Teatro Romano

This Etruscan relic, located outside the city walls, is an example of the Roman ruins that dotted Italy at the time. It is also where Jacopo de' Pazzi died.

-*'''Don't Get your Hands Dirty''' (DNA Sequence 5) This is an assassination mission received from a pigeon box. Your task is to have 4 guards killed without killing them yourself. It fairly easy because three of the guards are on towers. Simply, climb up to the top of the tower, grab them and throw them over the edge to their death. The fourth guard is in the market at ground level, you can either poison him and wait, hire the nearby mercenaries to kill him, push him into a nearby wooden structure or throw him into the well.
