Florence - Piazza del Duomo

The Piazza del Duomo, the square around the cathedral, is one of the most important sites in European art, with the cathedral, Giotto's Campanile and the Baptistery. The cathedral square, adjoined on the west by the Piazza San Giovanni with the Archbishop's Palace, is overlooked by several imposing buildings, including the Loggia del Bigallo, the Palazzo della Misericordia, the Palazzo dei Canonici, the Palazzo Guadagni, the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo and the Palazzo Niccolini.
