In Search of the Renaissance in Arezzo
 When the In Search of the Renaissance in Arezzo
 When the Tuscan sun decides to turn Arezzo into a wood-fired oven, there's an elegant solution: step inside some of its beautiful Renaissance churches! Today we set out in search of the Renaissance, visiting three hidden gems that are well worth a stop. First stop: The Abbey Church of Saints Flora and Lucilla (La Badia) Often called Vasari's church, it features important decorative work by Giorgio Vasari, Arezzo's most famous artist and architect. Stepping inside is like stepping into the artistic world that helped shape the city's identity. Second stop: The Church of the Santissima Annunziata This church has its origins in an ancient spedale. In the Middle Ages, a spedale was much more than a hospital. It also served as a hostel, shelter, and tavern for pilgrims and travelers making their way through Tuscany. A fascinating place that tells centuries of stories about hospitality and care. Third stop: Santa Maria in Gradi Here you'll find one of the city's artistic treasures: a beautiful masterpiece by the Della Robbia family, famous for their brilliant glazed terracotta works in luminous shades of white and blue. It's a work of art that continues to amaze visitors centuries later. #Arezzo #Toscana #Rinascimento #GiorgioVasari #DellaRobbia #ChieseDiArezzo

We marked a 5 and a 4, but couldn’t win with Sant’Andrea pulling in two 5s. There is always the September Giostra del Saracino... Chi vincerà la prossima??? 💛💙
