Palazzo Medici Riccardi
Palazzo Medici Riccardi is a cornerstone of Renaissance architecture in Florence and a symbol of the Medici family's early rise to power. Commissioned by Cosimo de’ Medici in the mid-15th century and designed by Michelozzo, the palace was one of the first buildings to reflect the new ideals of proportion, symmetry, and classical influence. Behind its austere, rusticated stone façade lies a refined interior, including the stunning Magi Chapel, decorated with vibrant frescoes by Benozzo Gozzoli that celebrate the Medici’s wealth and influence. Later expanded by the Riccardi family, the palazzo blends political power, artistic innovation, and family legacy, offering a quiet but powerful glimpse into Florence’s golden age.
