At Anghiari, a medieval town in the province of Arezzo, where top-level artists like Michelangelo and Piero della Francesca have worked, a fascinating artisan exhibition is not to be missed. The exhibition-market offers visitors the chance to view all sorts of hand-made objects, from antiques to wrought iron and stone work, from ceramics to precious metals, and from fabrics to leather. It is also a special occasion to taste the characteristic foods of the area offered by the numerous gastronomic stands.
The suggestive ancient town of Anghiari within its old walls still preserves its typical medieval aspect. The town is often recalled for the famous battle which took place there between the Viscount troops and the Florentines in 1440.
