We enter the Roman city through the door known as contra Aquilonem. The mighty brick walls, complete with great circular towers on each side of the main doors, were built by Augusto at the end of the I century B.C. forming a rectangle with the south side lying parallel to the course of the Arno. In the medieval period, built against the walls, rose the Episcopal Palace and the column of San Zanobi, erected in the IX century at the site where legend narrates that a dried elm tree miraculously bloomed again at the passing of the remains of San Zanobi, while being transported from the church of San Lorenzo to the church of Santa Reparata.
