Every Thursday, moreover, the Archaeological Museum of the Sienese Chianti will be open until 11pm – starting from 7pm it will be possible to visit the exhibition “Massimo Vinattieri, tra memorie dell’antico e astrazioni contemporanee” (Memories of the ancient past and contemporary abstractions), which has been recently inaugurated and will stay open until September 2nd.
