Arrezo's Antiques Fair


On a day trip to Deruta (a small town in Umbira) last year, we happened upon a small antiques fair.  Loving to attend antique fairs here in the US, it made for a wonderful surprise and the perfect day.  

This year we knew we would be spending a few days in Arezzo and the timing of of our arrival on the 1st Sunday of the month of October was perfect.  On the first Saturday and Sunday of every month Arezzo fills Piazza Grande and the surrounding streets with over 700 vendors to host the largest antiques fair in Italy.

If you need an activity to keep you moving and fight the 1st day jet-lag, this is it!


Oh ... and if you looking for a stone Italian Arch to complete the decor in your living room - this is where you can get it.
