One of the most renowned British legends is the tale of King Arthur and the sword in the stone. As the story goes, only the true king of England could extract the sword from the stone. Interestingly, a lesser-known but similar story can be found in Tuscany, Italy, and some even speculate that it may have inspired the British legend. This is the tale of the sword in the stone of San Galgano.

San Galgano is notable for being the first saint to undergo a formal canonization process by the Church. Consequently, much of San Galgano's life is documented through the records of this canonization process, which took place in 1185, not long after his death.
