Arezzo
Arezzo is a compact hill city where Piazza Grande, medieval churches and Piero della Francesca’s art sit within a walkable historic core. Its appeal is close looking rather than a long checklist.
Begin with Piazza Grande’s sloping brick surface and mixed palace fronts, then compare the Romanesque Santa Maria della Pieve with the Gothic cathedral. The True Cross fresco cycle in San Francesco gives art lovers a reason to set aside a separate indoor visit.
What to look for
Piazza Grande slopes past the apse of Santa Maria della Pieve.
The Pieve’s stacked loggias and square bell tower differ from the cathedral’s Gothic interior.
Piero della Francesca’s True Cross cycle is in San Francesco.
Useful to know
Walk the historic centre first; allow a separate visit for San Francesco’s frescoes.
The sloping streets and piazza make comfortable walking shoes useful.
