Arezzo is the provincial capital of eastern Tuscany, set on a hill above the Piana Aretina between the Upper Valdarno, Val di Chiana, Casentino and Valtiberina.
Its civic framework combines qualified Etruscan and Roman layers, an amphitheatre and locally produced terra sigillata, medieval growth, and a long period under Florentine rule. Its major cultural sites, including Piazza Grande and Basilica di San Francesco, need distinct histories and visitor information.
