Breakfast in Italian Style and Visit to the Chiostro dello Scalzo

À propos de cette activité

When you enter a bar in the morning, in Italy you see people in front of the counter of croissants, which are offered in the most varied declinations: empty, wholemeal with honey, with cream, chocolate or jams, puff pastry with rice cream, cream puffs, bull's eyes and all the typical morning pastries. Then you have to go to the coffee counter to order an espresso, which we simply call coffee. It doesn't matter to specify, because in Italy a coffee already means an espresso. We will then enter the Chiostro dello Scalzo, a place of the spirit of the Renaissance, away from the multitude of visitors, a place of peace, where medieval and Renaissance life can still be felt today. Sixteenth-century masterpiece by Andrea del Sarto, the "mistake-free painter" who lived in the time of Michelangelo and Leonardo. It is the most spectacular cycle of monochrome frescoes in the world. A lively tale in a muffled and monastic atmosphere, an all-Italian morning that you will never forget!

      1. Piazza della Santissima Annunziata

        Piazza della Santissima Annunziata is located in the historic center of Florence, north of Piazza del Duomo, and is dominated by the Basilica della Santissima Annunziata, one of the most important sacred buildings in Florence, as well as the mother house of the order of the Servants of Mary. Although it has been defined over several centuries, the square now shows a unified character and, among the Florentine squares, is the one that best expresses the ideals of the Renaissance city

      2. The square has a truly typical shape: surrounded by elegant buildings is dominated by the facade of the church and convent of San Marco, from which it takes its name

        in the center there is a small green area with trees, with a central statue surrounded by benches and, as in the Venetian square, crowded with pigeons. The bronze statue in question portrays General Manfredo Fanti (who died in Florence), a work of 1873 by the sculptor Papi, modelled on Pio Fedi.

      3. The Chiostro della Scalzo

        The Chiostro della Scalzo is a cloister in Florence that originally led to a chapel once belonging to a religious company known as the Compagnia del diciplinati di San Giovanni Battista or della Passione di Cristo. The term "scalzo" makes reference to the barefoot brother who carried the Cross during its public processions
