The heart of Florence and its historic town center, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Piazza Duomo leaves you breathless with its concentration of beauty, art and history. Here, in fact, are the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, with the Brunelleschi’s Dome and the Crypt of Santa Reparata, Giotto's Bell Tower, the Baptistery and the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo (Museum of the Works of the Cathedral), inside which is preserved one of the world's largest collections of sculpture from the Middle Ages and the Florentine Renaissance, with the original masterpieces that have decorated the monuments of Piazza Duomo over the centuries: works by Michelangelo, Donatello, Brunelleschi and Ghiberti, to name but a few.
