The town is very interesting to tourists because of its unique artistic and historical heritage, as seen in the buildings and numerous museums. Not surprisingly given the geographical position of Massa Marittima it also has lovely views across the beautiful landscape of the Maremma region of Tuscany. The town has received the Italian Orange Flag award for sustainable tourism.<\/p>\n<p>Your visit to the old centre of Massa Marittima starts in and around Piazza Garibaldi, a very attractive square in the heart of the old town. Here in <strong>Piazza Garibaldi<\/strong> certain particularly elegant buildings stand out, including the 13th century, the <strong>Palazzo Comunal<\/strong>e and the <strong>Praetorian Palace<\/strong> which is also the seat of the principal museums.<\/p>\n<p>In the vicinity of the square you can also see the 13th century <strong>Public Fountain<\/strong>, the &#8216;Palace of Plenty&#8217;, the ancient Mint and the <strong>Church of San Michele.\u00a0<\/strong>Head along Via Roma and the steep street called <strong>Via Moncini<\/strong> to <strong>Porta Senese and Silici Gate<\/strong>, beyond which more interesting buildings can be seen such as the the <strong>Fortezza Senese<\/strong> and the <strong>Tower of the Candle<\/strong>.
