The Basilica of San Domenico, also known as Basilica Cateriniana, is a basilica church in Siena.
The church was begun in 1226–1265, but was enlarged in the 14th century resulting in the Gothic appearance it has now. However, aspects of the Gothic structure were subsequently destroyed by fires in 1443, 1456 and 1531, and further damage later resulted from military occupation (1548–1552).
It is a large edifice built, like many contemporary edifices of the mendicant orders, in bricks, with a lofty bell tower on the left (this was reduced in height after an earthquake in 1798). The interior is on the Egyptian cross plan with a huge nave covered by trusses and with a transept featuring high chapels.
The church contains several relics of St. Catherine of Siena, whose family house is nearby.

The Association of Catherines gathers the spiritual children of Saint Catherine of Siena. On October 4, 1970, Pope Paul VI proclaimed Saint Catherine of Siena a Doctor of the Universal Church. From this event was established in Siena, by Decree of the Archbishop of Siena Monsignor Mario Ismaele Castellano o.p., the Ecumenical Association of the Catherines, as a continuation of the Company or Confraternity of Santa Caterina in Fontebranda, existing in Siena and with reference to the "spiritual family" of the Sienese Saint, whose members, called caterinati, venerate her as a spiritual "mother and teacher". After making some changes in the Statutes, since 15 August 1992 the Association is called the International Association of Catherines and is recognized by the Holy See by decree of the Pontificium Consilium pro Laicis. The association aims to make known and promote the life, thought and work of St. Catherine of Siena, through conferences, conventions, videos, publications made with scientific method and rigorously supported by historical sources. The president is the archbishop pro tempore of the Diocese of Siena, Colle di Val d'Elsa and Montalcino; The Prior General is a lay caterinate residing in Siena. The Executive Committee is the governing body of the Association, the Ecclesiastical Assistant is, currently, the prior of the convent of San Domenico. The Association is apolitical and non-partisan. The General Council meets in Siena once a year. The Presidents of the existing groups in Italy and abroad take part in the General Council. The headquarters of the Association is in Siena at the Sanctuary Casa di Santa Caterina. The Association enjoys the Spiritual Patronage of the Order of Preachers.

In the heart of Tuscany, immersed in the greenery of the Val d'Orcia , in a hilly position, stands the ancient farmhouse of "Poggio Covili" .
Its name, as reported in some publications, derives from the ancient tavern once frequented by those who, on foot or in a carriage, passed through the Via Francigena.
In the 70s it was bought by the Pasquini family and subsequently renovated with extreme care and attention, until today it becomes a dream farmhouse, surrounded by a breathtaking panorama .
