Via Carbonari:
The Carbonaie, ditches filled with burning coal, are at the foot of very steep banks and prevent enemies from leaning ladders against the walls. The lanes, or charcoal alleys of San Miniato, developed in medieval times along the defensive system. With the widening of the castle walls new Carbonaie were born. So it was formed a circuit around the castle which will be the ones that will be defined Carbonai alleys.
In the fourteenth century the Carbonai alleys were at least 18. The lanes of the circuit is attested by the municipal statutes of 1337 that give instructions for their maintenance.
From the second half of '500, the fortifications started to be dismantled and steep banks and Carbonaie eliminated.
Church of S.S.Annunziata:
It was erected in 1522 on the site of the oratory of the fourteenth century Society of Santissima Annunziata, which built the new church and donated it to the Augustinian friars of Lecceto Congregation.
The building, all in brick, has an original central-plan structure with an apse, high drum octagon that hides the dome. The interior has a look that is due to the work done between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries by Roffia family. Widened the apse area, in 1657, it was built the majestic altar of Gonfolina stone that frames a late fourteenth- century fresco Annunciation, the object of great veneration.
At the top of the dome is a fresco by Anton Domenico Bamberini celebrate the Coronation of the Virgin.
Next to the church, the remains of a cloister.
