This small Tuscan town is famous for the Giostra del Saracino, a recreation of an historic battle against the Saracens, it is a contest between mounted horsemen armed with halberds (a combined spear and battleaxe) and dressed in the liveries of the various quarters of this medieval town.

The colorful jousting spectacle makes Sarteano a popular destination in August.

It is also well known for a swimming pool that is filled with mineral water from a spring.
