Overview of your Florence tour:

The Monument Man Frederick Hartt wrote: "Every region of Italy is rich in works of art, but none so rich as Tuscany. Wars have passed over it. Time, weather, vandalism, and neglect have destroyed possibly more than remains. Yet what is left in the birthplace of the Renaissance is still the greatest and most nearly complete artistic heritage that mankind possesses. . . What happens when this dense fabric of human achievement, so infinitely precious, so incalculably old, so carefully guarded, is struck by the full force of modern warfare?" This is what I shall try to let you know during this tour as well as other dramatic events such as the Jewish and political persecution in the city. A tour about monuments and people who dared to oppose the German occupation bravely. In the background, the history of Fascism, the armistice in the year 1943, and the Liberation of Italy thanks to the Allied: from the visit of Hitler to Florence in 1940 to the Liberation of the city in August 1944.
