Overview

Florence & the Medici names are bound together like art and light. For nearly 3 centuries, this illustrious family guided the city’s destiny, nurturing the genius of Michelangelo, financing Brunelleschi’s soaring dome & filling Florence with treasures that still echo through time.

They were more than rulers: they were visionaries, patrons, and seekers of beauty. Their legacy lives on not only in the stones of Florence, but in the spirit of the Renaissance itself.

Join this tour & walk in their footsteps of Medici:

Through the Palazzo Medici Riccardi, austere on the outside, golden within, where the Chapel of the Magi glimmers like a hidden jewel.

Into the Medici Chapels, where marble, mosaic & silence entwine to honor centuries of power & devotion.

Beneath the gaze of Michelangelo’s genius in the New Sacristy, where architecture becomes sculpture & stone seems to breathe.

To follow the Medici is to trace the heartbeat of the Renaissance, where faith, ambition & beauty became one.
