Overview

Relive the story of the family that managed to become the symbol of a city, facing countless obstacles, betrayals and victories. Explore the most symbolic places of the Medici family in Florence, the most famous city of the Renaissance.

See where many of the scenes from the tv series “THE MEDICI” took place.

Uncover the true essence of the main characters of the Medici Family, Lorenzo the Magnificent, Cosimo the Elder or Piero the Unfortunate. But also explore the amazing palaces of enemy families like the Strozzi, Albizi, and Pazzi.

Together we will visit the Palazzo Medici, a famous architectural work of the fifteenth century and the beautiful Chapel of the Magi, which was painted by Benozzo Gozzoli. We will also visit a secret place where the genius Michelangelo learned to sculpt, under the shadow of one of Donatello’s pupils, the Bertoldo.

    Palazzo Medici Riccardi

    The first Medici palace, the home of Cosimo the Elder & Lorenzo the Magnificent & the workplace of artists of the calibre of Donatello, Michelangelo, Paolo Uccello, Benozzo Gozzoli and Botticelli. The Renaissance house… where it all began.Towards 1444 Cosimo the Eldest, the patriarch of the Medici family, commissioned to Michelozzo a palace to be built in via Larga (now via Cavour), close to the church of San Lorenzo: the palace is the first Renaissance building erected in Florence.Characterised by clearly delineated and rusticated floors & a huge cornice crowning the roofline, the palace stands out for the arched windows arranged along its front & the partially closed loggia on the corner of the building. In 1517 the original building was altered by closing the loggia & adding the two "kneeling" windows according to Michelangelo's project.The palace continued to be inhabited by the lesser members of the family until 1659, when Ferdinando II sold it to the Riccardi marquises.
