The famous basilica held by the Dominicans in Florence, cradle of the recently born Renaissance! Santa Maria Novella Tour is a magic combination between details, history, curiosities. No queues should be made and it is not even necessary to book the ticket in advance.
This huge church shines with its Renaissance facade designed by Leon Battista Alberti! We will dynamically visit paintings and sacred sculptures. We can access the church in its entirety, including the frescoed chapels, the sacristy and the "Avelli" cemetery. The highlights of this visit are: Giotto's crucifix, Masaccio's Trinity fresco, Filippo Brunelleschi's crucifix, the Tornabuoni Chapel, decorated by Ghirlandaio, and also the Spanish Chapelso called. Next, we will get inside the museum and the Dominican convent's great cloisters.
