The true treasure, in fact, is inside; the floor<\/b> of the Cathedral of Siena is a magnificent work created by marble<\/b> inlays<\/b> and graffiti<\/b> that depict religious stories and symbols made from the fourteenth to the nineteenth century.<\/p>\n
The chapels<\/b> and the Piccolomini<\/b> Library<\/b> collects priceless works by various artists including the frescoes<\/b> by Pinturicchio<\/b> and the statues<\/b> by Donatello<\/b>.<\/p>\n
