  1. 8th Topical Seminar on Innovative Particle and Radiation DetectorsSiena, 21 – 24 October 2002

  2. SIENA is located in Tuscany about 50km south of Florence Ancient Etruscan settlement, became Roman colony under the name of Sena Julia Its importance grew in Middle Ages until became a municipality in 12th century: flourished in XIV century Frequent confrontations with neighbouring towns: taken over by Florence in 16th century Still retains an authentic medieval atmosphere

  3. Piazza del Campo 14th century, is the heart of the city Location of the ancient roman forum, boasts 14th century gothic buildings Palazzo pubblico e Torre del mangia Fonte Gaia by Jacopo della Quercia The horse race (Palio) is held here, 2nd of July and 16th of August Of medieval origin, sees the 10 of the 17 contrade competing against each other: the winner gets the Palio (banner)

  4. The Dome,XIV century: one of the best roman-gothic architectural examples Masterpieces by Nicola Pisano, Donatello,Pinturicchio Floor consisting of 56 different mosaics, depicting sacred scenes, required more than 150 years to be completed
