Overview

Arezzo is famous because Giorgio Vasari was born here, the disciple of Michelangelo, who designed the famous Uffizi and the Vasari Corridor in Florence on behalf of Grand Duke Cosimo I De' Medici.

Our tour's principal stops are as follows:

The city's centre square, Piazza Grande, is uniquely typical with its porticoes dating from the sixteenth century.

Piazza del Duomo: this stunning medieval structure, dominating the plaza, houses priceless artwork by Donatello and Piero della Francesca. Arezzo's ancient lanes and streets, where the ambiance of the old goldsmith shops is still palpable.

The best-known painting by 15th-century painter Piero della Francesca is located in the Basilica of San Francesco, Cappella Bacci. Based on the advice of Dominican priest Jacopo da Voragine, these frescoes tell the storey of the True Cross!

How could anyone possibly miss a tour this thorough? Now let's move!

Activity itinerary

Piazza Grande
  • 30m
The Piazza Grande in Arezzo, also known as Piazza Vasari, is one of the most beautiful squares to visit in Tuscany. Famous for being home to the ancient Giostra del Saracino, the square is characterised by an irregular and at the same time extraordinarily harmonious. Piazza Grande is the city's reference square, uniquely typical with its 16th-century porticoes.
Piazza Del Duomo
  • 30m
Another square to visit in Arezzo, in addition to Piazza Grande, is certainly Piazza Duomo, where stands the magnificent Cathedral of Saints Peter and Donato Piazza del Duomo, home to the beautiful medieval structure that crowns the plaza and houses priceless works of art by Donatello and Piero della Francesca. The spirit of the old-fashioned goldsmith shops may still be felt in Arezzo's ancient streets and alleyways.
Basilica di San Francesco
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
The Basilica of San Francesco is an important place of Catholic worship in Arezzo, famous above all for the Stories of the True Cross, a cycle of frescoes by Piero della Francesca in the chapel. Piero Della Francesca's best-known painting from the 15th century is housed at the Basilica of San Francesco in Cappella Bacci. The Dominican friar Jacopo da Voragine's suggestions regarding the Legend of the True Cross are followed in these frescoes!
