During your stay, whether for business or pleasure, it will be wonderful to get to know a city as rich in beauty as Arezzo: find out what there is to see and do.

Arezzo is a Tuscan city that offers pearls to its visitors, thanks to the many historical monuments and streets that take you back to ancient times.
Start your tour at the Basilica of San Francesco, located right in the centre of the city. Inside you will find the famous Bacci Chapel, which contains the wonderful cycle of frescoes of the Legend of the True Cross, a masterpiece of Renaissance painting by Piero della Francesca.

Marvels under the open sky

Continue along the Corso Italia to reach the Pieve di Santa Maria, with its interesting Romanesque façade and colonnade. Inside there is a polyptych by Pietro Lorenzetti from 1320 and a wooden cross by Margarito from the 13th century.
From here, you can reach the Piazza Grande, flanked on either side by the Loggiato del Vasari and the Palazzo della Fraternita dei Laici.

Set of Life is Beautiful

The square in Arezzo is famous for being the film set of Roberto Benigni's 'Life is Beautiful'.
Moreover, on the third Saturday in June and the first Sunday in September, the square becomes the stage for the Giostra del Saracino, a knightly tournament of medieval origin.

The Cathedral of Arezzo

If you go a little higher up you will find the imposing Duomo di Arezzo, famous for its stained glass windows, a masterpiece created in 1500 by the French master Guillaume de Marcillat. Inside the Duomo, there is also a small fresco by Piero della Francesca, as well as some terracottas by Andrea della Robbia. The 'al Prato' garden connects the Duomo with the 16th century Medici Fortress from where you can admire a beautiful panorama of the city.

The city of Vasari and Petrarch

Arezzo is the birthplace of Giorgio Vasari. Indeed, you can visit the House of Vasari: many of his works are housed in the Museum of Medieval and Modern Art.
If you love poetry, you must not miss the house of Francesco Petrarca, a true immersion within the domestic walls of one of history's greatest poets.
