This Cortona is a small welcoming town in the Valdichiana, in the province of Arezzo

The city, enclosed by a wall where Etruscan and Roman tracts are still visible, was built on a hill, which reaches about 600 meters in height This elevated position guarantees an excellent view from different points of the city, which allows you to admire the splendid landscapes of the Valdichiana, also seeing Lake Trasimeno

The center of Cortona develops around the Piazza della Repubblica, which overlooks the Palazzo Comunale

The city is small, but offers several interesting things to visit, including the Diocesan Museum (in which a beautiful table of the Annunciation by Fra Angelico is kept) and the MAEC (Museum of the Etruscan Academy and the City of Cortona), in the which are exhibited, among other things, many finds from the different Etruscan areas of the area At the museum you can get information on visits to the Archaeological Park of Cortona

Do not miss a visit to the beautiful Sanctuary of Santa Margherita, patron saint of the city, and to the Fortress of the Girifalco Both are located on the highest point of the hill, which can be reached by walking, keeping in mind that the path is short enough, but all uphill Following the path that runs along the city walls, you can also enjoy beautiful views of the surroundings The Fortress of the Girifalco, built for military purposes, has undergone important changes over the centuries and is currently only partially accessible

Several small shops selling handicrafts and local gastronomy are located on the main streets of the center of Cortona In the area excellent wines are produced (we are also a few kilometers from Montepulciano and Montalcino) and there is no shortage of wine bars

In the city there are several restaurants, mostly oriented towards traditional local and Tuscan cuisine (in the Valdichiana Chianina is bred, one of the most ancient and quality Italian cattle breeds)

Just outside the walls of Cortona, there is the Franciscan hermitage Le Celle, the first convent built by San Francesco d 'Assisi in 1211, in which today a small community of friars lives Over the centuries the hermitage has undergone several renovations and extensions, during which the small cell of San Francesco has been preserved, which can still be visited today
