Area Archeologica
Make the Area Archeologica your first stop. A pretty spot to stroll, the archaeological area ensnares an Etruscan temple (Fiesole was founded in the 7th century BC by the Etruscans), Roman baths, an archaeological museum with exhibits from the Bronze Age to the Roman period, and a 1st-century-BC Roman theatre where live music and theatre is performed during the Estate Fiesolana (held June to August) and Vivere Jazz Festival.

Museo Bandini
Your ticket to the Area Archeologica also gives admission to the tiny Museo Bandini next door. The collection of early Tuscan Renaissance works inside includes fine medallions by Giovanni della Robbia (c 1505–20) and Taddeo Gaddi’s luminous Annunciation (1340–45).

Museo Primo Conti
From Museo Bandini, a 300m walk along Via Dupré will bring you to the Museo Primo Conti, where the eponymous avant-garde 20th-century artist lived and worked. The views from the garden here are lovely, and there are more than 60 of his paintings inside. Ring to enter.
