Abstract

This article presents the results of the teaching collaboration between the 2nd level University Master’s in Architectural Heritage Preser-vation of the UPV and the 2nd level University Master’s in Enhancement of Cultural Heritage of UNIFI during the academic year 2023-24. The collabo-ration consisted of carrying out a conservation project for the Amphithea-tre of Arezzo so that the UPV students could develop the intervention part, and the UNIFI students would be in charge of the valorisation part of the monument. The complex of the Roman Amphitheatre of Arezzo, whose elements are characterised by an Outstanding Universal Value [1], presents a series of circumstances that make it particularly interesting from different points of view: the conservation of the ruins, the relationship with the monastery built on its remains, or its concealment in a block of the urban fabric of the city, are some of the aspects that are proposed to be resolved in the projects developed. The results show a variety of solutions of great interest that nourish the potential of both institutions and highlight the value of this type of international teaching collaboration.
