Florence History

Europe has no shortage of picturesque cities steeped in history and culture, but only a handful of these can claim premier league status. It is no exaggeration to say Florence is somewhere close to the top of this league. It is a truly remarkable place not just for its breathtaking array of magnificent buildings, paintings and sculptures; but also for its profound atmosphere of civility.

Here, you feel, is a place where, at least for a time, mankind got civilisation right. Yes, the city’s history is peppered with dark episodes and bitter infighting, but somehow this doesn’t detract from the feeling that Florence is a project that all other towns and cities across the world would do well to learn from.
