💍 Where did the Medici celebrate their royal wedding?

Описание: 🌿 In Florence, there is a place that not everyone knows about.

Imagine walking through the busy streets, turning a corner - and suddenly finding yourself in a quiet courtyard full of history and beauty…

And the best part - it’s completely free to visit! 🏛️

This is the inner courtyard of Palazzo Vecchio.

The palace was built in 1299 by the architect Arnolfo di Cambio as the government building of the city.

In 1453, architect Michelozzo redesigned this courtyard for Cosimo I de’ Medici - one of the most powerful men of his time.

Right here, in this courtyard took place the wedding of Francesco I de’ Medici and Joanna of Austria 💍 - an important union between the Medici family and the Habsburgs.

The columns, the painted ceilings, and the fountain by Verrocchio - all of this keeps the memory of the Medici alive.
