From the First Medici Residence to the Last, One Afternoon Departure
The Medici story told in the order the family moved through the city, on a single departure at 1:30 in the afternoon. They paid for the art, the culture, the churches and a good deal of the science of their period, and they got there through banking, trade and influence inside the church. A professional guide takes the route through what that money left behind: the architecture, the buildings, the churches and the works of art the family commissioned. It starts at the first house they lived in and ends across the river, looking at the last.
