Discover the Medici legacy on a captivating Florentine adventure! Walk the streets that witnessed their rise to power. Start at the grand Palazzo Medici Riccardi, their early residence.

This very network is believed to be a key to their success.
Your journey continues to San Lorenzo Square, once Florence's cathedral square. Witness the Medici's influence – they rebuilt the church in the glorious Renaissance style!
