Area information

An encounter with Cortona is an encounter with art, with history and with spirituality. Getting to know this timeless city is a real rediscovery of our past. Cortona offers testimony to its history as well as an enchanting view of the landscape enclosed by Lake Trasimeno and the Appenines. Classical music’s most celebrated artists including Lang Lang, Antonio Pappano, Thomas Hampson, Midori, Sarah Chang, Salvatore Accardo, Dmitri Hvorostovsky, Hélène Grimaud, John Corigliano, Dmitry Sitkovetsky and Nina Kotova will highlight the third annual Tuscan Sun Festival on August 5-21, 2005, in Cortona, Italy. The Museum of the Etruscan Academy is housed at the noble floor of the historic Palazzo Casali, erected in the 13th century, later turned to official residence of the family that ruled the signoria of Cortona (1325-1409) and, then in 1411, adapted to be the seat of Florentine captains and commissaries. The museum was created by the initiative of three culturated Cortonese brothers, Marcello, Ridolfino and Filippo Venuti, founders of the Etruscan Academy, who gathered in this seat a rich archaeological collection and an important library, both gifts of their uncle Onofrio Baldelli, for the cultural promotion of the Etruscan Academy. The area stretching from Valdichiana to the Casentino area until the town of Cortona is the location of the "Terre di Arezzo" wine route, which is over 125 miles long. This area has always been characterized by a large production of different types of wines, many of which receive 'DOC', 'DOCG' and 'IGT' certifications every year. Among the grapevines that are picked and distilled in this area are: Chianti, Chianti colli aretini, Colli Etruria Centrale, Valdichiana, Cortona and Vinsanto del Chianti. Red, white and dessert wines are produced and bottled in the wine territories around Arezzo. They are mostly noble wines, with a medium alcoholic content, and can be drunk young or preserved in time.

Travel information

The town of Cortona is in Tuscany on the umbrian border and close to the Lake of Trasimeno, well positioned to main roads, motorway and the railway. Additionally, Cortona is situated at ca. 600 M above sea-level, a continuation of Monte San Egidio, offering full views of the Chiana Valley
