San Miniato is a neighborhood located north of the historic centre of Siena, Tuscany. Originally a rural settlement with medieval origins, it was extensively redeveloped in the 1970s and 1980s as part of an ambitious urban plan by architect Giancarlo De Carlo, aiming to integrate contemporary architecture within the city's historic landscape. Today, although primarily residential, the district is home to important academic and healthcare institutions.
