Cortona's medieval streets are pleasant to walk, and enjoy fabulous countryside views along the medieval town walls. Cortona has remnants of its pre-Roman Etruscan past, Renaissance artists Luca Signorelli and Fra Angelico, and Baroque artist Pietro di Cortona.

Duomo: Cortona's Renaissance cathedral, built on the site of an Etruscan temple, has an 11th-century facade and beautiful 16th and 17th-century paintings inside.
Museo dell' Accademia Etrusca: In the 13th century, Palazzo Pretorio, the Etruscan Academy Museum, located on Piazza Signorelli. Besides good Etruscan artifacts, the museum holds Roman remains, Renaissance and Baroque paintings, 15th-century ivories, and a small Egyptian exhibit. It's closed on Mondays.

You'll find picnic supplies in several stores in town, and on Saturdays, there's a market in Piazza Republica. On August 15 is the Sagra della Bisteca (beef steak festival).

On the way up the hill, you'll pass more Etruscan tombs, olive groves, and the Renaissance Church of Santa Maria Delle Grazie al Calcinaio. If you're driving, look for parking near the top of the hill as soon as possible. If you're arriving by bus, you'll arrive in Piazza Garibaldi, a prime-view spot.
