Stop At: Palazzo Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria, Florence Italy

The Palazzo Vecchio is the town hall of Florence. It overlooks the Piazza della Signoria with its copy of Michelangelo's David statue as well as the gallery of statues in the adjacent Loggia dei Lanzi.

Originally called the Palazzo della Signoria, after the Signoria of Florence, the ruling body of the Republic of Florence, it was also given several other names: Palazzo del Popolo, Palazzo dei Priori, and Palazzo Ducale, in accordance with the varying use of the palace during its long history. The building acquired its current name when the Medici duke's residence was moved across the Arno to the Palazzo Pitti.

Stop At: Museo Casa di Dante, Via Santa Margherita 1, 50122, Florence Italy

Italian poet, man of letters, politician, scholar of philosophy and theology, Dante Alighieri (Florence 1265 – Ravenna 1321) represents an entire culture, the culture that took shape starting in the twelfth century

Dante’s artistry, thanks to which he is considered the father of the Italian language, ranges from the production of poetry, such as the Rime, to philosophy, with the Convivio and the Quaestio de aqua et terra, to treatises on politics, like De Monarchia, or linguistic-literary matters, like De vulgari eloquentia. But the work that ensured lasting fame for Dante is the Divine Comedy, which is the description of the journey he made through the three kingdoms of the afterlife.
