A green valley between history and nature
The landscape resembles an ancient fresco: soft meadows, cultivated gardens, rows of aromatic plants, and farm animals tell the story of an agricultural and authentic Siena.
Walking along the paths, one can sense the history of the place, once a medieval village, then a city garden and a space for work and care for the patients of the nearby psychiatric hospital.
A place of inclusion and community
The valley still retains its social function today: it is a space of inclusion, where the cooperative that manages it offers job opportunities and hospitality.
The reconstructed medieval garden allows visitors to discover ancient plants and crops, observing how people lived and cultivated in the fourteenth century.
A slow and authentic experience
The open spaces invite you to slow down, sit on the grass, listen to the wind, and observe Siena from a different, more intimate and natural perspective.
The restaurant immersed in greenery uses products grown in the valley, keeping the agricultural tradition alive and offering a genuine and simple experience.
Families, children, and seasons
Families find a safe and welcoming place, with animals, educational paths, and spaces where children can explore and learn through play.
Each season brings new colors and atmospheres: the bright green of spring, the warm gold of summer, the soft tones of autumn, and the tranquility of winter.
The most intimate and gentle Siena
The Orto de’ Pecci is a refuge for those seeking peace after a day among alleys and monuments, a corner to breathe and regain balance.
The valley tells a different Siena from that of the crowded squares: a Siena made of work, nature, care, and community. The contrast between the countryside and the medieval city creates a unique emotion, as if two souls of Siena coexist in the same space.
