I had just about given up on seeing this, we had run out of time and i just stumbled upon it. I hurried through it... 5€ entry. I appreciated the art. Not much more to say. Enjoyed it because there was nobody inside. Zero tourists

First rate collection of Sienese art, especially strong in Gothic period. Enjoyed Simone Martini paintings a lot.

On my page the 14th century in Italy created the most amazing art ever, mixing innocence with striving to the sublime. And this museum has it all, from the 13th century, almost byzantine, through the breaking through to the late Gothic of Ducio, Simone Martini...More

Museum focuses on the gothic style, so relatively little renaissance paintings (for these Uffizi is...More

Despite how crowded Siena is, we were frequently alone in gallery after gallery of important Gothic panel paintings. This is not for everyone's taste, but it's a massive, important collection. The early Renaissance bypassed Siena, so this is not at all like a museum in...More
