Santa Maria Novella Museum Private Tour With 5- Star Guide
Overview
Planning a trip to Florence and wondering what to see and do? Here's my guide to visiting the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella, one of Florence's most important and beautiful churches. I tell you everything you need to see outside and inside the church. Santa Maria Novella is Florence's only Renaissance-style church facade, with prefect geometry. The church is an artistic treasure trove. It houses one of the world's most famous paintings, Masaccio's Holy Trinity, and the revered Spanish Chapel.
Museum of Santa Maria Novella was founded by the monks of Dominican Order of the first half in the thirteenth century, it became the number one of the most important points of artistic and religious interest in Italy. The celebrity of Santa Maria Novella during the Middle Ages and Renaissance period attracted important artists such as Giotto, Brunelleschi, Masaccio, Michelangelo, Ghirlandaio, Botticelli and Vasari (just name a few), who realized beautiful artworks inside the complex.
