AttractionsArezzo's main square, Piazza Grande, is charmingly off-kilter. Since 1200, it has listed alarmingly to one side, creating a slope crowned with a graceful loggia designed in 1573 by Giorgio Vasari. Perpendicular to where the shop-filled tunnel-like loggia runs out of the square sits the composite Palazzo della Fraternità dei Laici. The Gothic lower half (1377) has a detached Spinello Aretino fresco of the Pietà and a Bernardo Rossellino Madonna della Misericordia (1434) in bas-relief above the door. The upper loggia was built in 1460, and the clock bell tower added by Vasari in 1552. An extensive renovation of the palazzo was completed in 2002. One palace down to the left is the arcaded apse of Santa Maria della Pieve . Click the names below for more detailed information.
