Those who love history will find in Chiusi a city of great interest with its many traces of the Etruscan period as well as those of Medieval times. Apart from the structure of the city itself, the signs of the past are most evident in the Cathedral, the Palazzo Episcopale, the Cathedral of St Secondiano, the Bell Tower, the Catacombs, and the National Etruscan Museum.
The Civic Museum (Cathedral Museum) houses the marvelous 21 "codici miniati benedettini", works dating back to the 15th century. Chiusi is not only for history lovers, but also for enthusiasts of popular traditions, especially those which evoke the Etruscan period.
The gastronomic traditions are of great importance, since Chiusi was originally a mosaic of farming villages. The cuisine of Chiusi is amongst the finest in the whole of Tuscany featuring Pici, Brustico, Fragrant Wine, Olive oil, Spelt, Venison and Wild boar.
