Palazzo Strozzi is one of Florence’s great Renaissance residences. Powerful banker Filippo Strozzi the Elder commissioned the palace in the late 1400s, ordering the demolition of a large number of pre-existing buildings in the process. The Palazzo Strozzi we see today is a free-standing and beautifully proportioned structure that trumps the Medici Palace of Strozzi’s business and political rivals, the Medici family. The Strozzi family eventually relinquished the property during the fascist period, and the City of Florence has been managing it since 1999. Visitors now come to see some of the most exciting exhibitions held in Italy each year.
Florence's Museo di San Marco features art and frescoes by the gifted early Renaissance painter Fra’ Angelico. The museum is part of a complex comprising a church and a convent. The museum is centrally located in Piazza San Marco.
Bargello Museum (also known as Museo del Bargello) is one of the oldest buildings in Florence, dating back to 1255. What used to be a palace, as well as a prison and barracks, is now an art museum boasting a number of 16th-century sculptures, plus four masterpieces by Michelangelo (1475-1564) and Donatello's David.
The Brancacci Chapel is a chapel within the Santa Maria del Carmine church in the Oltrarno district of Florence. Built in the second half of the 13th century, the chapel is known for housing the first masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance.
The Textile Museum is the largest cultural center in Italy dedicated to the appreciation of ancient and contemporary textiles, costume and fashion. Prato's textile district has its origins in the Middle Ages and still stands today as the most important in Europe. The Museum's headquarters is in the restored premises of the former Campolmi Cimatoria, the last major textile factory of the 19th and 20th centuries within the medieval city walls of Prato and today an important tourist destination for lovers of industrial archaeology. The Museum's holdings consist of an outstanding collection of artifacts documenting the art of textiles and fashion from the past to the present day. The Museum continuously renews its contents by displaying the collections on a rotating basis and organizing temporary exhibitions.
Museo de' Medici is a museum in Florence dedicated to the House of Medici, an influential banking family that ruled over the Florentine Republic (and later, Florence) from the 15th to the 18th century. They were great patrons of the arts and played a prominent role in funding the Renaissance in Italy.
