Tour Firenze dei Medici: i Signori di Firenze

The history of Florence could not be told without recalling the events of the Medici, the Masters of Florence. This family, that has in fact managed the destiny of the ‘lily town’ from the fifteenth century until the beginning of the eighteenth century, left such an immense heritage of palaces, sculptures and paintings that in this day forms the main reason for which Florence is visited and admired by the whole world. From the core of the town, not far from the religious centre consisting in the Duomo and the Baptistery, we begin the Medici Family Masters of Florence tour; our first place to visit is Palazzo Medici-Riccardi, the first example of a Renaissance palace in Florence. Leaving the Palace, we move on towards the Basilica of San Lorenzo, the mausoleum church of the Medici family. It’s inside this building where we are able to see the ‘Sagrestia Vecchia’ (the old Sacristy), the first sepulchral nucleus of the Medici family, built by the renowned architect Filippo Brunelleschi . We conclude our Medici family Florence tour by visiting two emblematic places for the history of the family. Part of an independent museum itinerary from the church of San Lorenzo, the chapels are two environments that can be visited in a single itinerary which, due to the wealth of works of art, represent a unicum in the Florentine artistic context. The last room we will visit with the Medici family Florence tour is the ‘Sagrestia Nuova’ (New Sacristy). Space designed by Michelangelo to preserve the remains of Giuliano Duke of Nemours and Lorenzo Duke of Urbino, today this environment is the casket that collects the masterpieces of the great genius: the allegories of Day and Night, Dawn and Twilight, between the most emblematic and fascinating works of the master.
