context_page_description: Santa Maria della Pieve is a church in Arezzo, Tuscany, central Italy.
context_section_description: The church is documented since as early as 1008, and, during the communal period of Arezzo, it was the stronghold of the city's struggle against  its bishops. After the latter built the  nearby Cathedral and palace, the church, which had been already rebuilt in the 12th century, was further renovated with the façade and the apse, and the interior was remade in Gothic style (13th century).
  The bell tower, finished in 1330, is in Romanesque style.
