Santa Maria Novella we Florencji

Santa Maria Novella in Florence is one of the most important Gothic churches in the city, combining Gothic and Renaissance styles. Built between 1279 and 1357, it impresses with a facade designed by Leon Battista Alberti.

The interior hides priceless art treasures - frescoes by masters such as Masaccio, Giotto, Filippino Lippi and Domenico Ghirlandaio. The Strozzi and Tornabuoni chapels are real gems for painting lovers.

It is also a place of great historical significance - in 1439, the Council of Florence was held here to unite the Greek and Latin Churches.
