Baptistery of St John

Florence is a beautiful city. Walking around its streets is an experience in itself because not only can you come across so many interesting places but also the buildings in the city are truly unique.

One of the most famous places in the city centre that´s visited by millions of tourists who arrive at the city every year is the Baptistery of St John, which is called Battistero di San Giovanni in Italian. They say that this is the oldest building in the city and that it´s famous for, amongst other things, for the three groups of bronze doors that not just have a huge economic value but an artistic one too.

The bapistery is located on the Piazza del Duomo, west of Santa Maria del Fiore and up to the 19th century it was where all Florentines were baptised.

The Baptistery is one of the most important, striking and famous places in the whole city, but there are also many monuments, parks, museums, works of art and different cultural landmarks to enjoy.

Now, you just have to rent apartments in Florence to see all of these places and not miss out on this great chance.
