Основное

Маршрут

1. 1

   A friar seized Florence from this quiet square. His bonfire consumed the city's art, its books, its mirrors. Florence applauded, then burned him in the same spot. The tour begins here.

2. 2

   Piazza della Santissima Annunziata

   Brunelleschi's perfect piazza hides two windows with opposite fates. One sealed forever after a conspiracy. One open for five centuries, kept that way by a ghost who made a promise and never broke it.

3. 3

   The oldest hospital in Florence was founded by Dante's Beatrice's father. Beneath it, tunnels moved bodies in secret. Above it, the ghost of its first nurse still walks the wards and refuses to leave.

   One bricked-up window on this Renaissance facade

   One bricked-up window on this Renaissance facade is not a renovation. It is a punishment. A conspiracy against the Medici was plotted here. Cosimo found out. The window has never opened since.

5. 5

   Piazza del Duomo

   An Easter Sunday assassination inside the cathedral. A lightning bolt that toppled the golden ball from Brunelleschi's dome. A demon's signature carved into the marble. The Duomo holds more than prayers.

6. 6

   Built to outshine the Medici by a family they had previously exiled, the Palazzo Strozzi nearly bankrupted its owner before he finished it. Someone died here under unclear circumstances. The courtyard still echoes at night.

7. 7

   In 1216, a broken engagement became a murder on Ponte Vecchio that split Florence into Guelphs and Ghibellines for decades. Dante blamed it for cursing the city. The families involved lived right here.

8. 8

   Ponte Santa Trinita

   The Germans blew this bridge apart in 1944. Florence spent years recovering its stones from the Arno riverbed and rebuilt it exactly as it was. The head of Spring was missing for sixteen years before they found it in the silt.

9. 9

   Ponte Vecchio

   A secret elevated corridor runs above the goldsmith shops, built so the Medici never had to touch the street. Below it, the ghost of a murdered nobleman is said to walk the bridge where he died on his wedding morning.

10. 10

    One of Florence's last surviving medieval towers belonged to the family who ordered the murder that started decades of civil war. An armored knight is said to wander its courtyard in silence. The air goes still when he passes.

11. 11

    Piazza della Signoria

    Florence’s power square became a stage for punishment, where Pazzi conspirators were hanged and Savonarola burned on the same spot. A crude face and scorched stone still haunt the palace wall.

12. 12

    Piazza Santa Croce

    Florence built Dante a grand tomb inside its most celebrated basilica. He is not in it. The city that sentenced him to be burned at the stake if he returned has been asking Ravenna for his bones ever since. Ravenna keeps saying no.
