A quiet hilltop church on the eastern side of the centre with early Sienese paintings and a panoramic stair.
Santa Maria dei Servi, dedicated to San Clemente, stands on a hill in the Contrada del Valdimontone. Its interior holds a notable Madonna of the Bordone and early Sienese paintings. The staircase in front of the church gives one of the best free views of the city skyline. It sees far fewer visitors than the Campo.
