Overview

Everyone loves Cortona, because it is an authentic and fascinating place.
Village of Etruscan origin with stone houses, which stands in the center of an impeccable countryside, hand-sculpted in every corner, pampered by man in every detail.
All around there are cypresses, vineyards, olive trees, oaks and fruit trees.
Frances Mayes, the very famous writer, made Cortona famous in the eyes of the world thanks to her novel "Under the Tuscan Sun" and the beautiful film based on her novel.
So what will we see in this treasure chest of wonders?
1) The Palace of the Captain of the People and the Town Hall, buildings from the medieval era
2) Piazza Signorelli, which owes its name to the famous Renaissance painter who was a friend of Leonardo da Vinci.
3) Piazza del Duomo with its fourteenth-century gothic cathedral
4) the Girifalco Fortress
5) The ancient walls of Cortona with the Porta Bifora, the oldest, as it is of Etruscan origin
Enjoy strolling through magic Cortona!
