Siena - Forte di Santa Barbara

From San Domenico we can go either northwest along the Viale dei Mille, past the Stadium, or north round the Stadium to a beautiful park, the Passeggio della Lizza, with a monument to Garibaldi (1896). At the west end of the park is the entrance to the Forte di Santa Barbara, a fortress built by Duke Cosimo I in 1560, which is now used for open-air performances.
