There is a 3.2 meter statue of Giotto in Vicchio's central square, the Piazza di Giotto.[5] It was also the birthplace of Jean-Baptiste Lully (Baptized Giovanni Battista Lulli), who would become the founder of the French opera tradition. Two victims of the Monster of Florence (killed nearby the town in 1984), Pia Rontini and Claudio Stefanacci, were citizens of Vicchio.
