Santa Maria Novella

The church of Santa Maria Novella is located just a few metres from the railway station, which shares its name, so it is easy to find. Chronologically, it is the first great basilica of the city. It was built between 1279 and 1357 by the Dominican order. Architecturally, it is one of the most important Gothic edifices in Tuscany. Inside the building, you will find masterpieces by Masaccio, Giotto, and Brunelleschi.

Museo Galileo

Museo Galileo features exhibitions that include all kinds of inventions from history, with informative videos showing how they work. Since Galileo Galilei was one of the world's most celebrated scientists and inventors, this museum is a tribute to him and to the work he accomplished in Florence.

Museo Casa di Dante — House of Dante

Born in Florence in 1265, Dante is the father of the modern Italian language and author of the famous The Divine Comedy–one of the great's masterpieces of world literature. Keep in mind that the museum is not the actual place where Dante was born; it is a restored medieval house similar to Dante's birthplace.
