Florence - San Frediano in Cestello

This Carmelite church and convent, formerly known as Santa Maria degli Angeli, then became a parish church dedicated to St Frediano. The church was transformed in the 17th century when it became Baroque in character, as is evidenced by its distinctive little cupola and graceful campanile.

Inside can be seen the famous "Smiling Madonna", a 13th/14th century Tuscan painted wooden statue.
