Architecture
Piazza del Duomo
Brunelleschi’s dome crowns Florence Cathedral and is the largest masonry dome in the world.
Piazza della Signoria
Piazza della Signoria took shape in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries with the construction of the Palazzo dei Priori, renamed Palazzo Vecchio in the sixteenth century. It immediately became the city’s political centre and a space for civic life. The symbolic building, still home to Florence’s municipal government, offers several museum routes: the monumental apartments, the archaeological area with the remains of the Roman theatre, and the Tower of Arnolfo with its splendid panorama.
Art
Uffizi Gallery
The Uffizi Gallery is one of the world’s most important museums, with an immense artistic heritage. An eighteenth-century reorganisation made it primarily a painting museum, with thousands of works from the thirteenth to eighteenth centuries. Other collections—arms, scientific instruments, archaeological finds and ancient and modern bronzes—were transferred elsewhere to establish new museums.
Palatine Gallery and Royal Apartments – Pitti Palace
Inside Palazzo Pitti, the grand dukes’ paintings hang in several rows, arranged for decorative effect rather than by period or school.
