It almost seems that this small village had a magnetic pole capable of attracting the chromosomes of genius. Cortona has in fact given birth to many famous artists, and through all eras: Pietro Berrettini called Pietro from Cortona, Stefano di Giovanni called Sassetta, the Mazzuoli, a lineage of sculptors between the 16th and 18th centuries, Luca Signorelli and also Gino Severini. With this tour of Cortona designed to get to know and admire the works of Cortona artists, you can discover the true beauty of this eternal charming borgo.
From the Middle Ages to the Avant-garde, from the Renaissance to the Baroque, the city has plenty of artistic gems. You will discover some of them just by walking in the historic center, you will enter the most famous churches of the hamlet (San Domenico, San Francesco, the Duomo) and you will end the tour with a “concentration” of beauty: the Diocesan Museum, which houses many artistic tables by Luca Signorelli and the famous Annunciation by Beato Angelico. After filling your eyes with beauty, you will also think about the palate with a stop in one of the most beautiful and well-known bars in Cortona for a tantalizing aperitif.
