Il castello di Monteriggioni risale al secondo ventennio del Duecento e fu fondato dalla Repubblica di Siena per difendere i confini contro la città rivale, Firenze, imponente per l'epoca, tanto da suggerire a Dante una famosa similitudine con i Giganti collocati nell'Inferno: […] però che, come su la cerchia tonda / Monteriggion di torri si corona, / così la proda che 'l pozzo circonda / torreggiavan di mezza persona / li orribil giganti […]” (Inf., XXXI, vv. 40-44)
