Hoogtepunten

The Florentine neighborhood of Oltrarno is well-known for craftmanship and laboratories - experience hands-on the traditions kept alive for centuries. First, visit a famous paper workshop where they create beautifully marbled patterns that date back to 17th century bookbinders. See how the artists create special patterns, some even still famous today. Then, try your hand at marbling for a fun keep-sake to bring home with you! Next, visit a family owned leather workshop. Oltrarno has been home to leather workers since the 14th century, and while most have moved out the city, a few workshops have managed to survive. See how this family creates beautifully hand-made products. Step inside a mosaic laboratory. While mosaics have been popular in Italy since the Roman age, Florence created their own unique version under the Medici family. Meet the craftspeople who keep this ancient tradition alive, and watch them create beautifully ornate masterpieces from rough pieces of stone.

About Florence

Florence, de wieg van de Renaissance, bundelt meesterwerken van kunst en architectuur in een compacte stad van stenen straten langs de Arno.

De Duomo, met Brunelleschi's enorme rode koepel, Giotto's klokkentoren en de vergulde deuren van het Baptisterium, markeert het centrum van de stad. Een paar straten verder kijken de Piazza della Signoria en het Palazzo Vecchio uit op een loggia vol beelden, en in de Uffizi hangen Botticelli, Leonardo en Rafaël. Michelangelo's David staat in de Galleria dell'Accademia.

Top-ranked sights in Florence: Piazza della Signoria, Uffizi Galleries (Gallerie degli Uffizi), Florence Duomo (Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore).
