The origins of La Suvera go back to the High Middle Ages. Later La Suvera passed into the hands of others in episodes of alternate good fortune and ill luck but finishing with the Republic of Siena gifting it to Pope Julius II, who wished to win the Pope’s favour. This Renaissance Pope is far better known as Raffaello’s patron who commissioned rooms in the Vatican, and Michelangelo’s for the Sistine Chapel, and for having commissioned Bramante to build the new Basilica of St. Peter’s.
