Santa Maria della Pieve

The church displays a five-arch lower level topped by three loggias, with columns increasing in number toward the upper sections of the facade.

The structure, consecrated in 1179 on the site of a Roman temple, underwent construction throughout the 13th and 14th centuries with Gothic interior modifications.

The central portal features the Cycle of Months reliefs, created by craftsmen from the Po Valley between 1230 and 1240, representing agricultural activities.

Located at Corso Italia 7 in Arezzo, the church contains Pietro Lorenzetti's polyptych Madonna and Saints from 1320 and a silver bust of San Donato.

The bell tower, completed in 1330 and known as 'delle cento buche', contains five rows of mullioned windows with the baptistery at its base.
