We will start our tour here by talking about the history of Florence and the Medici Family in front of the basilica of Santa Maria Novella, one of the most important churches in Florence.
From Piazza Santa Maria Novella, we will walk through the alleys of Florence and reach Palazzo Antinori, built between 1461 and 1469 and considered one of the most beautiful Renaissance palaces in Florence. In front of Palazzo Antinori, we will talk about the beautiful Church of Santi Michele e Gaetano, one of the most important examples of the Baroque style in the city founded by the Medici Family. Here we'll discover the history of their Coat of Arms.
Before arriving in Piazza Santa Trinita, we will meet Palazzo Strozzi in Florence is one of the most beautiful Italian Renaissance palaces. Of imposing size (15 buildings were destroyed to make room for it), it is located between the homonymous via Strozzi and piazza Strozzi, and via Tornabuoni, with three imposing identical portals on as many sides. A true masterpiece of Florentine Renaissance civil architecture, it was begun at the behest of Filippo Strozzi, a wealthy merchant belonging to one of the wealthiest families in Florence, traditionally hostile to the Medici faction. Here we will talk about the competition between the Medici and the Strozzi.
