Where to park in Arezzo to visit the center and main attractions

Choosing the right parking in Arezzo depends greatly on the area you want to reach. The city offers several well-distributed solutions to easily access the main points of interest.

To visit the historic center, San Francesco Square and the Cathedral

The heart of Arezzo is rich in cultural and monumental attractions. Here it's worth choosing well-connected parking areas such as Baldaccio or Cadorna, both just a few minutes' walk from the main churches and squares, or the free parking areas Pietri and Via Tarlati, accessible via escalators.

To visit the Piero della Francesca Museum (Basilica di San Francesco)

The Basilica di San Francesco houses the frescoes by Piero della Francesca. The best parking options are the central ones such as Baldaccio or Cadorna, from which you can easily reach the monument on foot. Alternatively, the free parking lots with escalators (Pietri, Tarlati) offer convenient access.

To reach the railway station

Those arriving by train or needing to use rail connections can park at FS Park Parking, adjacent to the station. Alternatively, at Baldaccio Parking (reachable in 12 minutes on foot, 850 m) or at Mecenate Parking (also near the station, approximately 12 minutes on foot).

To visit the Giotto area and the shopping streets

The commercial area around Via Giotto is well served by the Parcheggio Mecenate (with free Esselunga parking nearby) and the Parcheggio Baldaccio, both just a few minutes from the main shopping streets.

To access San Donato Hospital

Those who need to reach the healthcare facility should use the San Donato Hospital Parking (714 spaces), located directly on Via Paolo Nenni with immediate access to the hospital building. It is the most spacious and convenient for extended stays related to medical visits.

Parking in Arezzo during Christmas markets and events

In Arezzo, particularly during the Christmas period and holidays, the city fills with tourists thanks to the famous Christmas Markets and other events and exhibitions (such as the Antique Fair). In these situations, finding parking in the center can become complicated.

Tips for parking during events and exhibitions:

  • Prefer parking structures: they are more spacious and guaranteed. Baldaccio and Ospedale San Donato have good availability even on crowded days.
  • Arrive in advance compared to the start of events and exhibitions.
  • Use free peripheral parking if you can wait for walking times (Pietri, Tarlati, Viale Gramsci); on these days the pressure is lower compared to the center.
  • Use Telepass if you have it: Eden parking reduces access and exit times even during peak hours.
  • Avoid entering the center during rush hours: prefer morning or evening hours.
