Overview of your Florence tour
During our walking tour, we have the opportunity to learn how the daily life for gay people was here, during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance era. Florence has been an LGBTQ-friendly town, since those times, famous in Europe for its liberality towards this community, even if the Government created a special Police to fight the sodomy. Laws, penalties, punishments, exile, death penalty, but also gay weddings, celebrated in front of an altar. And, not only common people were involved in that activity; many famous artists and aristocrats had "secret" and forbidden relationships.
