Starting the early 1400's, the Medici family deeply influenced the destiny of Florence, through its crucial contributions to the artistic and cultural development of the town during the Renaissance. Before dying in 1743, the last member of the family changed that destiny with her legacy, turning modern Florence into the richest repository of art treasures in the world. Our focus during this tour will be the stories about this family, and the main aspects of its most important members. We will do that while discovering the downtown landmarks that were the symbols of the Medici power. Therefore we will start from the Medici Riccardi Palace - their first major residence in town where Michelangelo lived with them. We will then visit Palazzo Vecchio, that became their residence in the mid-1500's, when the duke Cosimo I turned it into the glorification of his family. Finally, externally following the route traced by the Vasari Corridor, we reach Palazzo Pitti.
Main landmarks included in the itinerary are: - Palazzo Medici Riccardi (outside) - Duomo complex (outside) - San Lorenzo church (outside) - Medici Chapels (outside) - Piazza della Signoria - Palazzo Vecchio (inside) - Uffizi Palace (outside) - Ponte Vecchio - Palazzo Pitti (outside) We will visit Palazzo Vecchio from the inside and all other sites from the outside, if you want to add some sites from the inside please contact me!
