Piazza della Signoria

Explore Piazza Della Signoria, the center of political life in Florence since the 14th century that also hosts the prominent Palazzo Vecchio. This very square witnessed some of the key episodes of Florentine history, like the return of the Medici in 1530. Or The Bonfire of the Vanities instigated by Savonarola, who was then himself burned at the stake there in 1498.
We will have the opportunity to discuss the delicate relationship between art and power and the contribution of the Medici family in turning Florence into the cradle of the Renaissance.

Ponte Vecchio

A short stroll away are the pint-sized jewelry shops of Ponte Vecchio. As you gaze upon the wide River Arno, you'll learn how this medieval bridge was intended to be an important city defense.

Listen to the fascinating tale about the bridge’s hidden passageway that was built for the wealthy Cosimo de Medici I.
He was then transported in a small horse-drawn carriage from the offices in the Palazzo Vecchio to the family home in the Pitti Palace without having to mingle with the common people of Florence!

Stroll by Orsanmichele and find out how medieval crafts were turned into Renaissance artistic leadership.
